Hannah Ritchie’s Not the End of the World in Spanish (Anagrama, trans. Francisco J.

Her claim: doomism is unearned. The trends contain more progress than the headlines admit, and we could actually be the first generation to build a sustainable planet.
On the climate shelf this is the data-optimist corner: the counterweight to Antonio Turiel’s collapse maths, cousin of Superabundancia, and the polite opposite of False Alarm.
