Laura Brown lives in Great Britain with her family in 2015 when the country makes a decission to cut it's carbon emission by 60 percent. Every person gets a Crabon Card which shows how much carbon they are alowed to use each year. Global warming has taken a drastic turn. The weather goes from freezing weather to drought, to a massive flood. Her family constantly fights, and you can watch the progress they make as they go through the year. Her mother ends up moving out while her father goes absolutely crazy. Her sister leaves home more and more. In the climax, the entire comunity must ban together to survive.

I kind of enjoyed this book. It could have been better, but it was pretty good overall.
