Deskripsi

If you only read one nonfiction book this year, it should be this one... this book forces you to face the most important thing compared to others. David Sexton, Evening Standard. Severe. It's worse than you think. It's not true to say that climate change is happening slowly, especially if it's not happening. And if your concerns about climate change are limited to the effect of raising sea levels, that's not okay yet, just a little bit of all the possible calamities it causes, which can happen even in the lifetime of a teenager now. Over the past few decades, the term Anthropocene has entered the popular imagination for the geological era we are experiencing, defined by human intervention with the planet. But while you may be aware that we have corrupted nature, and obviously we have already done so, who knows we are actually just provoking nature, when in ignorance (initially) then indifference (now) we create a climate system that will fight us for centuries, perhaps until we are wiped out. That system will change us, overhauling all aspects of our way of life, no longer sustaining dreams of prosperity, but real nightmares. This gripping, frightening, and scornful book is perhaps the broadest explanation so far of how climate change will change all facets of our lives, from where we live, what we eat, to the stories we tell. Required reading for our increasingly unfamiliar and unpredictable world. Amitav Ghosh, author of Flood of Fire.
