Hey everyone!
I finally got a chance to get this tag video up. Kim very kindly tagged me :)

Here's her original video that has her cohost's video and more info on the X book club: youtube.com/watch?v=Awpb3uDvfgA

Here are the climate fiction and nonfiction videos I was referencing:

Here is Jade's video for polarathon recommendations! youtube.com/watch?v=2mvXZIocLrI

Here is some info on the environmental impact of physical books vs. ereaders and there are some more links and resources in these articles as well:

Here are the questions:
1. What is your favourite bookcover with nature on it?
2. Have you read a fiction book where climate change was a theme? If not, are there any on your TBR?
3. Are there any books set in the polar regions that you want to read/have read?
4. What are your opinions on the relationship between book consumerism and the environment? Should people should buy fewer physical books to help minimise deforestation, for example?
5. What role do you think books and reading has in regard to educating people about the environment? Do you think it is the most effective way to teach people about environmental issues?
6. Have you read a non-fiction book on climate change that you think we should all read?
7. Where is the most beautiful place in nature that you have read a book? (Pics if you have them!)
8. If you could live in any natural setting in a book (e.g. the Hundred Acre Wood in the Winnie-the-Pooh stories), which one would you choose and why?


Here are some resources to help support the Black Lives Matter movement. I absolutely stand in support of this movement, and I have a bunch of different stuff linked below that I really hope you will consider checking out and includes petitions to sign, places to donate, books to read and videos to watch etc. Because Black lives fucking matter.

First I wanted to link Stalah's incredible word doc with a bunch of resources:
