THE FUTURE EARTH - ERIC HOLTHAUS KARTONIERT (TB)

The first hopeful book about climate change  The Future Earth shows readers how to reverse the
short- and long-term effects of climate change over the next three decades. The basics of
climate science are easy. We know it is entirely human-caused. Which means its solutions will
be similarly human-led. In The Future Earth  leading climate change advocate and
weather-related journalist Eric Holthaus (the Rebel Nerd of Meteorology-Rolling Stone) offers a
radical vision of our future  specifically how to reverse the short- and long-term effects of
climate change over the next three decades. Anchored by world-class reporting  interviews with
futurists  climatologists  biologists  economists  and climate change activists  it shows what
the world could look like if we implemented radical solutions on the scale of the crises we
face. What could happen if we reduced carbon emissions by 50 percent in the next decade? What
could living in a city look like in 2030? How could the world operate in 2040  if the proposed
Green New Deal created a 100 percent net carbon-free economy in the United States? This is the
book for anyone who feels overwhelmed by the current state of our environment. Hopeful and
prophetic  The Future Earth invites us to imagine how we can reverse the effects of climate
change in our own lifetime and encourages us to enter a deeper relationship with the earth as
conscientious stewards and to re-affirm our commitment to one another in our shared humanity.
