The Tantrum that Saved the World is a kickstarter fueled campaign to produce a children’s book about climate change.
The book will come in two parts. the first part is the story about a small girl child who finds out about, and attempts to address, global warming (more or less … you’ll have to read the book to find out the details!). the second part is about the science of climate change, expanding on the first part.
According to Michael Mann, “We wrote this book because, in our view, nothing like it exists. It educates by entertaining kids. It encourages action by inspiring them.” For her part, illustrator Megan Herbert wanted to turn her “frustration about climate inaction into something positive, to tell myson that I care about the world that I’m passing onto him. I want all kids to understand the challenges ahead and to be inspired to act positively rather than be overwhelmed.”
The book will be printed in an eco-friendly way, especially the eVersion of it!

Wouldn’t kids be happy to have a cute polar bear come by, and thus want more global warming as a result of this book?
