Recommended Reading for Earth Month

To celebrate Earth Month, Yale Climate Connections recommends several books that build upon Rachel Carson’s seminal tome, Silent Spring. Waste Wars, for example, exposes how garbage has spawned a multibillion-dollar global business. Close to Home takes a backyard approach to climate science, showing how everyone can contribute to science and sustainability. And The Moral Circle asks humans to consider the needs of all species affected by human activity and technology.
