Klappentext zu „Future on Fire: Capitalism and the Politics of Climate Change “
- A revolutionary and visionary approach to fighting climate change?this book could not be more timely?with a global crisis manifested in floods, fires, and droughts across the globe.
- It is a lucid,impassioned argument for the necessity of eco-socialism.
- Offers a sober look at strategies for getting to the goal of a just transition (dramatically slashing greenhouse gas emissions in a socially-just way) that will not work and outlines a strategy that could work. Focuses on political strategy, which is neglected by most books on how to address the climate change crisis.
- Recognizes that capitalism itself is both the cause of climate change and the major barrier to addressing the crisis, and that ultimately a different way of organizing society is needed.
- Dares to ask the question ?what if emissions reach a level that make future global heating of over 2 degrees C unavoidable?,? rejects despair, and argues that even a ravaged planet is worth fighting for.
- Author has extensive activist experience including in climate justice and labor activism
