Rosie on the other hand, has a Kenyan fiancé who paid for her to study in England and expects her back. However, Rosie is confused about whom to choose. Ignorantly, Mike falls in love with her lies and could not wait to marry her when he found out she was pregnant for him. Amaro has come as a skilled immigrant and shares an accommodation with Stan, who has a vengeance to carry out. Stan fears she is only after his British citizenship not him and will continue to carry out his vengeance for all those years of rejection.

What does it take for us to act on the climate crisis – especially if we’re the kind of person who should already be acting? In this funny, relatable portrait, a concerned yet ineffectual dad finds the first step is letting those unbearable feelings of climate anxiety in, instead of pushing them aside. But as he meets others like him, he discovers how oil-backed propagandists funded our denial and paralysis. He sets out to unmask the vested interests responsible, helping raise a generation’s leading authors in a vibrant chorus. MY EXTINCTION is a revealingly honest account of how to feel your feelings, act on your privilege, and get active when threatened with extinction.
