Overview
Este libro habla de las estrategias de acción ciudadana con las que hacer frente a la aceleración del feudalismo climático y el capitalismo desastre. Un nuevo relato antiapocalíptico para construir un futuro esperanzador.
Es la historia más vieja del mundo, la de un desastre medioambiental y una tecnología que nos salva. La hemos repetido como un mantra desde el principio de los tiempos porque hasta ahora se ha revelado cierta: somos el animal más peligroso de la sabana y hemos vencido a las bestias, a las tormentas y a la enfermedad. Pero la estrategia evolutiva que nos ha mantenido vivos desde el inicio de nuestra existencia nos empuja ahora al borde de la extinción. Estamos tan atrapados que ya nos parece inevitable.
No es un problema técnico. A nuestro alcance hay soluciones para frenar el calentamiento global. Pero las grandes tecnologías de nuestro tiempo no pueden ayudarnos a gestionar la crisis climática, porque están diseñadas con otro objetivo muy distinto: gestionarnos a nosotros durante la crisis climática.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
This book refers to the strategies undertaken by citizens to tackle the acceleration of climate feudalism and disastrous capitalism. A new anti-apocalyptic tale to create a hopeful future.
This is the oldest tale there is, an environmental disaster and the technology to save us. We have said it over and over like a mantra from the beginning of time, since it has been proved correct to this day: we are the most dangerous animal in the savanna and we have defeated beasts, storms, and disease. But the evolutionary strategy that has kept us alive since the dawn of our existence now drives us to the edge of extinction. We feel so trapped we think of it as inevitable.
This is not a technical problem. We have solutions within our grasp to stop global warming. But the great technologies of our time can't help us manage this climate crisis, since they were designed for a very different purpose—to manage ourselves during this time.
