Best Climate Change Stories is a collection of thirty-four short stories written by authors from all over the world and presented by Ron Sauder, featuring the underlying theme of climate change. On the border between Italy and Switzerland, two mountain climbers come across the highest tree in the Alps, leading to a futile debate in a dangerous place. An old woman bids farewell to her home country -- now submerged in the sea -- and heads for an unknown refugee camp. A young girl far away from home finds unexpected sanctuary in the abode of a kindly old woman. In a world ravaged by climate change and a sky covered in soot, a painter strives to inspire others. The drunk captain of a fishing trawler finally gets his comeuppance for all the horrible things he has done.

Authors from nine countries and ten states in the US contributed to a contest organized in collaboration with an independent bookstore and an independent publisher. The result is Best Climate Change Stories, a diverse collection of tales that traverse multiple genres yet are unified with the common theme of climate change. Organized into a captivating anthology collection by Ron Sauder, this book is a must-read for all, regardless of background or any other differences. A major shift in the Earth's climate and environment is occurring right now, and humanity is to blame. This is why books like these have become increasingly relevant over the years. All the stories in this collection are absorbing in their own way, and each story has something unique to say about the biggest challenge human civilization has faced in a long, long time. Highly recommended.
