Losing Earth: A Recent History by Nathaniel Rich 2018

This is a good bit of reporting about the politics of climate change from 1979-1989.  There was an awareness of the problem then that is just as clear as now.  It seemed the US was about the address the issue, and then the oil and gas people confused people on the science.

Looking back to 1979 provides an interesting perspective on the thing.  It may be that people don't respond to an emergency until they're nearly dead.
