Michael is currently working on a book, titled Before They’re Gone,
about spending a year embarking on wilderness adventures with his wife and their nine-year-old son and seven-year-old daughter in national parks threatened by climate change. It will be
published in spring 2012 by Beacon Press (beacon.org).
