Overview
Ha llegado la hora de que contemos esta historia y, quizá, hasta de que le cambiemos el final.
Cómo funciona el clima, cómo está cambiando nuestro planeta, cómo nos afecta, qué hemos hecho al respecto y qué debemos hacer ahora: son las preguntas a las que este libro trata de responder. Greta Thunberg, que logró dar un vuelco a la lucha contra el cambio climático con su huelga escolar de los viernes y es candidata al Nobel de la Paz, se convierte ahora en su embajadora, con el aval de la comunidad científica mundial, al crear una obra de referencia para comprender la crisis de sostenibilidad que nos aqueja.
Una «Biblia del clima» en la que han colaborado los más destacados científicos, expertos, epidemiólogos, activistas, economistas, periodistas, pensadores y narradores, desde el director general de la OMS, Tedros Adhanom, hasta Thomas Piketty, Margaret Atwood, David Wallace-Wells o Naomi Klein, dando a conocer sus investigaciones y experiencias individuales y urgiéndonos a pasar a la acción si queremos conservar la esperanza.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
We still have time to change the world. From Greta Thunberg, the world’s leading climate activist, comes the essential handbook for making it happen.
You might think it’s an impossible task: secure a safe future for life on Earth, at a scale and speed never seen, against all the odds. There is hope – but only if we listen to the science before it’s too late.
In The Climate Book, Greta Thunberg has gathered the wisdom of over one hundred experts – geophysicists, oceanographers and meteorologists; engineers, economists and mathematicians; historians, philosophers and indigenous leaders – to equip us all with the knowledge we need to combat climate disaster. Alongside them, she shares her own stories of demonstrating and uncovering greenwashing around the world, revealing how much we have been kept in the dark. This is one of our biggest challenges, she shows, but also our greatest source of hope. Once we are given the full picture, how can we not act? And if a schoolchild’s strike could ignite a global protest, what could we do collectively if we tried?
We are alive at the most decisive time in the history of humanity. Together, we can do the seemingly impossible. But it has to be us, and it has to be now.
