Maggiori informazioni sul libro
If your anxiety about global warming focuses mainly on sea-level rise, you are only scratching the surface of the impending crises. In California, wildfires rage year-round, destroying homes, while "500-year" storms wreak havoc across the US, displacing millions annually. This is just a glimpse of the rapid changes to come. Without a fundamental shift in how billions live, parts of the Earth could become nearly uninhabitable by the end of this century. The author paints a vivid picture of the climate challenges ahead—food shortages, refugee crises, and other emergencies that will reshape our world. The impact of warming will extend beyond physical changes, altering our politics, culture, technology, and historical perspectives. It will influence nearly every aspect of human life as we know it. Like previous pivotal works, this book serves as both a reflection on the devastation we have caused and a passionate call to action. Just as the world faced near-catastrophe in a single lifetime, the responsibility to avert it now rests with one generation.
