She empowers listeners to think about their stuff and the  environment in a new way, helping them make more informed choices when  it comes to the future of our world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost importantly, this is an audiobook about the power we have as voters and consumers to make sure that  the fight against climate change includes all of us and all of our  stuff, not just industry groups and politicians. If we have any hope of  solving the problem, we all have to do it together.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hachette Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47102357143792,"sku":"2940170264667","price":25.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940170264667_p0.jpg?v=1763793798","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940170264667","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
