This story is part of another popular and growing genre, Environmental Fiction.
This review is from Horn Book starred (September, 2009)
"Seventeen-year-old James would "destroy all cars" to save Earth from global warming. Through journal entries and AP English assignments/rants, he also chronicles unrequited pining for his "do-gooder" ex-girlfriend, parental demands, and his hilarious relationship with his English teacher. Consumer culture has been covered before, but James's thoroughly amusing combination of angst, idealism, narcissism, and nihilism makes this new treatment very welcome indeed."
