Be in the audience on Thursday, April 4, when WWNO’s Coastal Reporter Tegan Wendland interviews author Nathaniel Rich about his new book, Losing Earth: A Recent History. Rich argues that by 1979 we knew nearly everything we know today about climate change, and how to stop it. In Losing Earth, Rich chronicles the next decade’s desperate campaign by a small number of scientists, politicians, and others to act before we lose the chance to save the earth.
The live audience interview takes place at 6pm, April 4, at the Tulane River and Coastal Center 1370 Port of New Orleans Place, overlooking the Mississippi River. Accessible from Henderson Street at the upriver end of the Morial New Orleans Convention Center. Open to the public; no tickets required. Copies of the book will be available at the event for purchase; Rich will sign copies after the interview.
Nathaniel Rich is a writer-at-large for the New York Times Magazine and the author of four novels. He lives in New Orleans. More information is at nathanielrich.com and gardendistrictbookshop.com.
