The biggest turning point in the story was the discovery that the ozone layer has a hole. People immediately reacted and needed answers as to how we can fix this issue. I was surprised at the initial speculation of why global warming was happening. This story could easily be a documentary on History Channel. I like the way the epilogue starts with talking about graduate students being asked what is the biggest breakthrough in climate physics since 1979. Though, it was a trick question, Nathaniel Rich said it was just a refinement. It was stated that this given crisis would panic people but not to the point where they’d try to solve it. As humans we care and worry but only a small amount of us would help. In the 70s, people didn’t have the equipment to stop climate change. This Is the main reason why we can’t blame the past for the inevitable. It was beautifully concluded that we brought this upon us and that maybe human nature will push us through. He continued to state that it is also human nature to hope.
