"Meltdown: Terror at the Top of the World" tells the riveting story of seven American hikers who went on a wilderness adventure into Canada's Arctic tundra—polar bear country—and came back with a tale of terror. Based on interviews with all seven hikers as well as many of the world's experts on polar bears and sea ice, "Meltdown" tells the story of the hikers’ harrowing encounter with a polar bear; the plight of the polar bear in general, facing starvation and extinction as the sea ice melts and its habitat disappears; and of the Arctic meltdown, an advanced symptom of man-made climate change that is touching everyone, everywhere. Praise for Meltdown: "As deftly paced and riveting as it is a clear call for dramatic action on climate change." - Porter Shreve, San Francisco Chronicle "Part harrowing survival story, part science lesson, “Meltdown: Terror at the Top of the World” is 100% the most gripping e-book single of 2014." - Howard Polskin, Thin Reads
