THE HARD WORK OF HOPE, Climate Change in the Age of Trump, continues the narrative of The Climate Nexus (RMB, 2015) which analyzed and explored the economic and social realities facing water, food, energy and biodiversity. and seeks to develop effective solutions to the growing urgency for global action on climate change.

Including the initial implementation of the UN’s 2030 Transforming our World global sustainable development agenda; the Paris Agreement on Climate Change; the commitment of the Canadian federal government to establish a climate action plan; and the UN Climate Summit in Marrakesh, Morocco, which aimed to advance the goals of the Paris Agreement.
