Hello! I'll be taking a look at this article for the January 2022 GAN backlog drive. If you haven't already signed up, please feel free to join in! Although QPQ is not required, if you're feeling generous, I also have a list of GA nominations of my own right here.

Infobox and lede

 * Comma after "In the book"
 * Done
 * "criticizes pacifism within the climate movement as well as "climate fatalism" outside it." "criticizes both pacifism within the climate movement and "climate fatalism" outside of it."

 * Delink pacifism and sabotage in the second paragraph, as they were already linked above
 * Done

Background

 * Don't use "spring 2018" as a descriptor, per MOS:SEASON
 * Same with "summer of the same year"
 * These are Malm's own fault, since they're from an interview with him. I switched to "in the first half of 2018" and "later that year" since he's almost certainly referring to Northern Hemisphere seasons.
 * ""was in total despair mode."" ""was in total depair mode"." per MOS:LQ
 * Done
 * "expected to be arguing" "expected to argue"
 * Done
 * Verso Books should be linked in the body
 * Done

 * Done

Fighting Despair

 * ""an eminently understandable emotional response to the crisis, but unserviceable as a response for a politics in it."" ""an eminently understandable emotional response to the crisis, but unserviceable as a response for a politics in it"." per MOS:LQ
 * Done
 * Continued LQ issues throughout: even if the end of a sentence is included in the quote, the period should only be inside the quote if the entire sentence is being quoted
 * Done

Reviews

 * LQ issues noted above
 * Done
 * "for blowing anything up" "for creating explosions" as both a paraphrase and to avoid ending a sentence with a preposition
 * Done

By notable figures

 * Good outside of LQ issues noted above
 * Issues fixed

Opposition

 * LQ issues noted above
 * Issues fixed
 * No comma needed after "in September 2021" unless you swap "and spoke" for "speaking"

 * Removed and reworded

Cover

 * Good

General comments

 * Images are properly licensed and relevant

 * Earwig tweaked out on me, but considering most of the quotes are direct, I'm going to AGF

That's all from me! Mostly minor, quick issues. Ping me with questions, and let me know when you're finished! —  Ghost River  16:02, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks so much for the review and especially the MOS:LQ lessons, ! Changes made. ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 17:59, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I feel that LQ only really makes sense after you've had to correct yourself over and over (like lots of our MOS quirks). In any case, everything looks good on my end, passing now! —  Ghost River  16:56, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
