‘Field Notes’ author boosts BNRC membership drive

Since May, we have been pleased to offer a signed copy of "Field Notes from a Catastrophe" to any BNRC member who increases his or her membership gift by $50 or more, or to any new member who joins us at the $50 level or higher.

"Field Notes" was widely lauded at its publication. Author Bill McKibben called it one of "the few irreplaceable volumes yet written about climate change."

Elizabeth Kolbert's work has the power to change the way we see ourselves and our role in the world. It causes us to think about human dependence on the gifts of the natural world, and the ways in which we consume those gifts. It is a must-read for anyone with an eye on the future.

Our ability to provide this important volume to our friends as a membership gift has been made possible by the generosity of the author, a BNRC member herself, and her publisher, Bloomsbury. We are pleased to extend this premium offer through December 31.
