A brilliant, compassionate account of the intersection between climate change and mental health [...] deserves to be widely read, borrowed, shared and discussed by anyone who cares about the climate -- Ro Randall, founder member of the Climate Psychology Alliance
Above all else, responding to climate emergency is a battle over our minds. Charlie Young had a natural entry point to this perspective through his own experience - and the consequences are radical.

And Spinning Out is a gateway to that possibility -- Anthony Painter, Director of Policy at the Chartered Management Institute (CMI)
