They are, journalists often write, forces to be battled, or storms to be weathered," writes Cannon. "Each of the volumes on Mongabay’s year-end book list deals in one way or another. But each also strives to understand how we are as much a part of the world as we are affected by what ails it." Cannon's piece: https://lnkd.in/gsZ-NCxw
