Hey there, so I've got an Audible account (:cringe: ) that I've been meaning to cancel. I'm procrastinating because I've got 1 credit left to spend on a book, and these assholes don't let you keep your credits when you cancel your subscription, but I don't know what to spend it on.

I'm going on a fairly long drive through drought-affected, wildfire-burned areas and I don't want to be ruminating on the end of the world the whole time. Trying to climb out of the depressive rut that I've been in.

I know the situation is objectively bad, but to me, resolving the cycle of grief after acceptance means finding meaning, and I find meaning in looking for constructive things to orient my life towards. So what I'm looking for is along the lines of eco-socialism (a la Paul Cockshott), adaptation, how we can feasibly avert 2 or 3 degrees +, that sort of thing.

I would also be open to a book that discusses the potential for actual socialist revolution in the US/first world today, and a realistic idea of how that might happen.

Thank you!
