Book description
Imagine this: a monkey grabs a banana from a jar, but can't pull its paw free. That's us. James Hamilton-Paterson's Stuck Monkey isn't just a book-it's a wake-up call you'll hear crackling through your headphones. His voice, dry and utterly sharp, cuts through the noise of modern life with a truth we've all been avoiding. He doesn't preach; he dissects. With research that stings and statistics that stick, he reveals how our "innocent" habits-pet food deliveries, bamboo toothbrushes that still cost the earth, endless online shopping-are quietly shredding our planet. And no, the eco-alternatives we clutch like life rafts? Often just as damaging. You'll hear him dismantle everything: the obsession with our pets (that cozy guilt of buying organic kibble?), the greenwashing of "sustainable" fashion, the carbon footprint of a weekend getaway. It's ferociously unflinching, but never despairing. Hamilton-Paterson's tone is like a calm, expert surgeon-removing the bandage to show the wound. You'll feel that familiar itch of guilt, then the shock of recognition: This is me. But here's the gift of this audiobook: it doesn't just leave you paralyzed. It arms you. Hearing him lay out the data-pet waste, the hidden cost of your gym membership, the absurdity of "wellness" trends-makes the invisible suddenly crystal clear. It's not about shaming; it's about seeing the trap we've built for ourselves, one banana at a time. By the end, you won't just think twice about your habits-you'll hear the echo of that monkey's struggle in every notification, every impulse buy, every "just one more" scroll. And suddenly, the idea of breaking free feels less like a burden and more like the only sane thing left to do. This isn't just a book for the climate-conscious; it's a vital, urgent conversation you'll replay in your mind long after the final chapter fades. You'll walk away not paralyzed, but poised to break free. That's the power of a great audiobook: it doesn't just inform-it transforms the way you hear the world.
