"Kivalina: A Climate Change Story" By Christine Shearer

Kivalina: A Climate Change Story
By Christine Shearer

http://www.haymarketbooks.org/bio/Christine-Shearer

In 2008, a small Alaska Native village named Kivalina sued fossil fuel companies for destabilizing their homeland and distorting the information on climate change: Kivalina v. ExxonMobil et al. Through muckraking, this book looks at the history of corporations and science, fossil fuels and power, leading up to the legal showdown and the village's fight for survival.
