I've been enjoying climate books recently. I've just finished How to be a Climate Optimist by Chris Turner, and before that The Ecology of Commerce by Paul Hawken.

Are there any books that you consider foundational/required reading for climate issues?

Some users from c/degrowth recommended The Dawn of Everything by David Graeber & David Wengrow and Survival of the Friendliest by Brian Hare & Vanessa Woods which I'm looking forward to checking out.

For some less optimistic, but still combative climate literature:

Climate Change as Class War, by Matthew T. Huber

Slow Down, by Kohei Saito

and right now I'm reading I Want a Better Catastrophe, by Andrew Boyd, and so far it's interesting (and accessible).
