Prompted by the disturbingly regular sight of dead bees on his driveway, Paul Fleischman has done our beleaguered planet a kindness: He’s inspected its environmental ills and given the next generation some analytical tools to sort through them. In “Eyes Wide Open,” Fleischman takes a broad view, beginning by debunking two widely perpetuated illusions: (a) “It’s always been this way” and (b) “Everything’s fine.” An acclaimed storyteller (“Bull Run”) and poet (“Joyful Noise”), Fleischman briskly describes, without gloom or doom, how we have gotten into this situation and how we may be able to get out of it.
