Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book examines the alarming rise in fossil fuel consumption, particularly coal, gas, and oil, which have driven capitalism since the industrial revolution. It highlights that over half of all fossil fuels consumed were burned in the last 50 years, with the most rapid growth occurring in the past three decades. This increase coincides with scientific confirmation of fossil fuels as the primary culprit behind potentially catastrophic global warming, emphasizing the urgent need for change in energy consumption practices.
