I wrote a little book just for you. "Oh, Pooh, It's Over: A Story of Our Gentle End" is a sensitive exploration of our existential climate crisis through the eyes and hearts of our little friends in the Hundred Acre Wood. #climatecrisis #collapse #coping

Directly above her, the kitchen window was dark. Above that, the second-story bedroom window of Christmas, who of
