In At Home on an Unruly Planet, science journalist Madeline Ostrander reflects on this as a force affecting Americans at home. A firefighter works to rebuild her town after catastrophic western wildfires. A Florida preservationist strives to protect a historic city from floods. An activist struggles to transform her community on the San Francisco Bay after fossil fuel disasters. An eroding Alaskan village heads for higher ground. Ostrander pairs deeply reported stories with lyrical essays on the power of communities to find solutions and resilience."-- Back cover.
