Hailed as a seminal work by The Times, Financial Times, Observer, and Nature, this essential guide offers a beacon of hope in our fight against climate change. Greta Thunberg, the world's foremost climate activist, presents a comprehensive handbook for effecting real change. While the task may seem Herculean—safeguarding Earth's future at unprecedented speed and scale—there remains a glimmer of hope, provided we heed scientific warnings before the clock runs out.

In this remarkable compendium, Thunberg has assembled insights from over a hundred experts, spanning fields from geophysics to indigenous leadership. Alongside these scholarly contributions, she recounts her personal experiences uncovering greenwashing practices globally, revealing the extent of public misinformation. This knowledge gap, she argues, is both our greatest challenge and our most potent source of hope.

The Climate Book posits that awareness is the catalyst for action. If a schoolgirl's solitary protest could ignite a global movement, imagine the potential of our collective efforts. We stand at the most critical juncture in human history, faced with a seemingly insurmountable challenge. Yet, armed with the right information and united in purpose, we can achieve the extraordinary. The time for action is now, and the responsibility lies squarely on our shoulders.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
