Refuge by Terry Tempest Williams

This classic memoir by Terry Tempest Williams examines her understanding and experiences with grief as her mother dies from cancer, and as an ecosystem that she holds close to her heart begins to flood and collapse ecologically. Both disasters, caused by human impacts on the ecosystem, boomerang back to affecting humans. This book encapsulates the effects of climate change on people, animals, and ecosystems, and is still equally as relevant as when it was written.
