Neal Stephenson's "Termination Shock" started out really good but it's really bogging down. If it doesn't pick up soon this may be a did-not-finish.

I'm listening to it on audiobook.

LOCHLAN: I don’t want to go to a county fair in Chicago if that’s what their cakewalks are like.

ME: Well it helps if you know a guy.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Termination_Shock_(novel)

"The book is set in a near-future when climate change has significantly altered human society and follows the attempts of a solar geoengineering scheme. The novel focuses on the geopolitical and social consequences of the rogue fix for climate change, themes common in the growing climate fiction genre."
