More about the book
I CRY CLIMATE CRISIS The planet, my heating system, and me "I was born into a plastic orange bubble. It was 1973, the year of the first oil crisis. We were still living under the reign of The Glorious Thirty. In the evening, we would eat instant mashed potatoes made with supermarket milk from a box. Nature didn't exist. At school, they told me very little about the countryside, except to say that it was disappearing with the rural exodus. It always seemed to belong to the past. I thought that the whole world was a developing city." Funny, provocative, informed, Jade Lindgaard's book is a first-person investigation into the intimate, paradoxical, neurotic rapport that we maintain with our lives, and the threats to our planet that these ways of living now create. Jade Lindgaard is a journalist at Mediapart. She is the author of B-a-ba du BHL (with Xavier de la Porte, La Découverte, 2nd ed. 2012), and of La France invisible (with Stéphane Beaud and Joseph Confavreux, La Découverte, 2006). She resides in Aubervilliers, a suburb to the north of Paris.
