Why free?

If it's free, where's the catch?

(There isn't one.)

This is a 316-page, highly-reviewed book about climate change and capitalism, packed with an engaging story, a few jokes. facts, and original illustrations.

So why give it away?

Because life shouldn’t only be about money. Think of this book as open-source software or Wikipedia for your brain. It is entirely anti-Amazon and a direct poke in the eye to billionaires trying to monopolise creativity. Word of mouth is more powerful than any algorithm, and doing this outside the corporate system proves it.

The Hummingbird Effect

In the book, a tiny hummingbird carries single drops of water to a raging forest fire while larger animals flee. When mocked, the bird replies: "I am doing what I can."

I wrote this book to inspire hummingbirds. A single bird changes very little, but billions can change everything.

No time to read?

Download it anyway. It might sit there until you find ten minutes to spare, get hooked, and finish it in three days. Worst-case scenario? It pisses off Bezos.

What Next?

Download the free PDF, buy the paperback, or / or "Buy Me a Coffee" if you feel like supporting the project. No pressure.

Just be a hummingbird and share the hell out of it!

Many thanks,
