In Climate Travels: How Ecotourism Changes Mindsets and Motivates Action, Michael M. Gunter, Jr. explores the impacts of climate change across the United States. Gunter takes readers on a journey highlighting the diverse manifestations of the climate crisis, including sea level rise in Virginia, inland floods in Tennessee, and imperiled ecosystems in national parks. Emphasizing the importance of local action and environmental justice, and by sharing his personal experiences and the power of travel, Gunter offers readers a hopeful message and encourages them to take action at the local level. Michael E. Mann says, “Read this book and feel empowered to make a difference.” Sponsored by the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute.
