Greta Thunberg è una giovane attivista il cui messaggio urgente sulla crisi climatica ha ispirato un movimento globale. Con coraggio incrollabile e una visione chiara, è diventata una voce mondiale che chiede un'azione immediata sulle sfide ecologiche. La sua determinazione ha mobilitato milioni di persone, evidenziando il potere trasformativo di un singolo individuo nel promuovere cambiamenti sociali significativi. La sua eredità risiede nel promuovere una maggiore consapevolezza e nel sostenere una responsabilità collettiva per il futuro del pianeta.
Mentre riporta alcuni brani dei discorsi che la ragazzina ha pronunciato in difesa del clima, il libro racconta la presa di coscienza dei suoi genitori e, insieme, delle difficoltà che hanno dovuto affrontare per il deficit della figlia, aprendo uno spaccato anche sulla situazione delle persone disabili in Svezia
On the brink of a critical moment in human history, this book presents a vision of "planetary stewardship" - a rethinking of our relationship with our planet - and plots a new course for our future. The authors reveal the full scale of the planetary emergency we face - but also how we can stabilize Earth's life support system. The necessary change is within our power, if we act now. In 2009, scientists identified nine planetary boundaries that keep Earth stable, ranging from biodiversity to ozone. Beyond these boundaries lurk tipping points. In order to stop short of these tipping points, the 2020s must see the fastest economic transition in history. This book demonstrates how societies are reaching positive tipping points that make this transition possible- groups such as Extinction Rebellion and the schoolchildren led by Greta Thunberg demand political action; countries are committing to eliminating greenhouse gas emissions; and one tipping point has even already passed - the price of clean energy has dropped below that of fossil fuels. The story is accompanied by unique images of Earth produced by Globaia, the world's leading visualizers of human impact.
In The Climate Book, Greta Thunberg has gathered the wisdom of over one hundred experts - geophysicists, oceanographers and meteorologists; engineers, economists and mathematicians; historians, philosophers and indigenous leaders - to equip us all with the knowledge we need to combat climate disaster. Alongside them, she shares her own stories of demonstrating and uncovering greenwashing around the world, revealing how much we have been kept in the dark. This is one of our biggest challenges, she shows, but also our greatest source of hope. Once we are given the full picture, how can we not act? And if a schoolchild's strike could ignite a global protest, what could we do collectively if we tried? We are alive at the most decisive time in the history of humanity. Together, we can do the seemingly impossible. But it has to be us, and it has to be now
This book brings you Greta in her own words, for the first time. Collecting her speeches that have made history across Europe, from the UN to mass street protests
Wie Klima Feedback Loops die Welt zerstören oder retten können
Klima-Feedback-Loops sind sich selbst verstärkende Kreisläufe. Drehen sie sich zu lange, können wir sie selbst dann nicht mehr stoppen, wenn wir jede CO2-Emission einstellen. Dann machen sie diesen Planeten ganz von selbst unbewohnbar. Und einige dieser Loops drehen sich bereits… Greta Thunberg und der Dalai Lama zeigen in diesem auf einem Gespräch zwischen ihnen basierenden Buch mit Hilfe mehrerer international renommierter Wissenschaftler nicht nur die Gefahr, die von den Klima-Feedback-Loops ausgeht. Sie haben auch eine gute Nachricht: Wir können diese Loops nicht nur stoppen, wir können sie sogar umdrehen und damit die Erde und ihre Atmosphäre wieder in ihren ursprünglichen natürlichen Zustand versetzen.
V srpnu 2018 se tehdy patnáctiletá Greta Thunberg rozhodla nejít do školy a začít před švédským parlamentem svou pravidelnou páteční stávku za klima, čímž zažehla jiskru globálního hnutí bojujícího s klimatickou krizí a inspirovala miliony studentů ke stávkám za planetu. Později obdržela prestižní Prix Liberté či nominaci na Nobelovu cenu za mír. Kniha Náš dům je v plamenech obsahuje český překlad knihy Scény od srdce, kterou společně s Gretou napsala její matka operní zpěvačka Malena Ernman, otec Svante Thunberg a sestra Beata Ernman. V této publikaci najdete také nejdůležitější Gretiny projevy, které v anglické verzi vyšly pod názvem No one is too small to make a difference.
