Blurb: Lloyd writes a very realistic scenario of what environmental/climatic breakdown will look like. It isn’t even that farfetched that 5 – 10 years from now some of us could be looking at something like Carbon Rationing. Lloyd gives us this outlook from the perspective of a teenage girl, but we also see the effects it has on the rest of her family and friends. I love that she shows us that these changes can (and probably will) affect not just how we work, spend, and travel, but even how we relate and love. Great book.
