Called “one of the nation's most effective communicators on climate change” by The New York Times, Katharine Hayhoe knows how to navigate all sides of the conversation on our changing planet. A Canadian climate scientist living in Texas, she negotiates distrust of data, indifference to imminent threats, and resistance to proposed solutions with ease. Over the past 15 years, Hayhoe has found that the most important thing we can do to address climate change is talk about it - and she wants to teach you how.

Farming is the world's greatest cause of environmental destruction - and the one we are least prepared to talk about. We criticize urban sprawl, but farming sprawls across 30 times as much land. We have ploughed, fenced and grazed great tracts of the planet, felling forests, killing wildlife, and poisoning rivers and oceans to feed ourselves. Yet millions still go hungry.

That man should have dominion “over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth” is a prophecy that has hardened into fact. So pervasive are human impacts on the planet that it’s said we live in a new geological epoch: the Anthropocene. The question we now face is: Can we change nature, this time in order to save it? Elizabeth Kolbert, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sixth Extinction, takes a hard look at the new world we are creating.

Economics is the mother tongue of public policy. It dominates our decision-making for the future, guides multi-billion-dollar investments, and shapes our responses to climate change, inequality, and other environmental and social challenges that define our times. Pity then, or more like disaster, that its fundamental ideas are centuries out of date yet are still taught in college courses worldwide and still used to address critical issues in government and business alike. That's why it is time, says renegade economist Kate Raworth, to revise our economic thinking for the 21st century. In Doughnut Economics, she sets out seven key ways to fundamentally reframe our understanding of what economics is and does. Along the way, she points out how we can break our addiction to growth; redesign money, finance, and business to be in service to people; and create economies that are regenerative and distributive by design.

A major audiobook about the future of the world, blending intellectual and natural history and field reporting into a powerful account of the mass extinction unfolding before our eyes. Over the last half a billion years, there have been five mass extinctions, when the diversity of life on Earth suddenly and dramatically contracted. Scientists around the world are currently monitoring the sixth extinction, predicted to be the most devastating extinction event since the asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs.

Description
Shortlisted for the FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year award
A renowned climate scientist shows how fossil fuel companies have waged a thirty-year campaign to deflect blame and responsibility and delay action on climate change, and offers a battle plan for how we can save the planet.
Recycle. Fly less. Eat less meat. These are some of the ways that we've been told can slow climate change. But the inordinate emphasis on individual behavior is the result of a marketing campaign that has succeeded in placing the responsibility for fixing climate change squarely on the shoulders of individuals.
Fossil fuel companies have followed the example of other industries deflecting blame (think "guns don't kill people, people kill people") or greenwashing (think of the beverage industry's "Crying Indian" commercials of the 1970s). Meanwhile, they've blocked efforts to regulate or price carbon emissions, run PR campaigns aimed at discrediting viable alternatives, and have abdicated their responsibility in fixing the problem they've created. The result has been disastrous for our planet.
In The New Climate War, Mann argues that all is not lost. He draws the battle lines between the people and the polluters-fossil fuel companies, right-wing plutocrats, and petrostates. And he outlines a plan for forcing our governments and corporations to wake up and make real change, including:
- A common-sense, attainable approach to carbon pricing- and a revision of the well-intentioned but flawed currently proposed version of the Green New Deal;
- Allowing renewable energy to compete fairly against fossil fuels
- Debunking the false narratives and arguments that have worked their way into the climate debate and driven a wedge between even those who support climate change solutions
- Combatting climate doomism and despair-mongering
With immensely powerful vested interests aligned in defense of the fossil fuel status quo, the societal tipping point won't happen without the active participation of citizens everywhere aiding in the collective push forward. This book will reach, inform, and enable citizens everywhere to join this battle for our planet.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"Fossil fuel companies have, for decades longer than I have been alive, been the largest contributors to the climate crisis that affects my generation today - all in pursuit of profits and growth. In The New Climate War, Michael Mann holds them to account, and shows us how we can take the bold steps we must all take together to win the battle to save this planet." (Greta Thunberg, climate activist)
"This book takes the reader behind the front lines into the decades long information war waged by the fossil fuel industry and those that share their interests. From his perspective as a leader in the battle for scientific reason, Michael Mann provides hope and a roadmap for all of us to address the systemic issues fueling climate change, and shows how we can come together to wage a new war in the fight for our future." (Leonardo DiCaprio, actor and environmental activist)
"Few people bear more scars from the climate wars than Michael Mann - and few have fought longer and harder for a basic, rational approach to dealing with this greatest of crises. Because of his persistence - and that of so many others - we are finally making progress!" (Bill McKibben, author of Falter: Has the Human Game Begun to Play Itself Out?)

Dont listen to the doomsayers
Another Michael E Mann book that should be read by all, Want to know if we can still meet all our climate emission targets? think all is lost? Believe that big oil is as green as they say? buy the book put your feet up and listen. Very well written and also narrated by Tim Campbell, a listen in one or 2 sittings definitely on the cards. I for one did not want to stop until it was finished. Enjoyed it so much I just pressed play again once it ended.

the must read for the hopeless
The most important book I've read on climate change this year (and I read a few every year). While other books fixate on the importance of making change, this book almost uniquely focuses on the challenges of making change, and how to overcome those challenges.
Everyone experiencing Doomerism needs to read this book ASAP. We are not doomed, but we must act, this book frames the fight in a tangible way, so that real progress can be made, and so the deniers and inactivitists cannot derail our action.

Needed !
The final two chapters of this book were very much needed by me, personally. I am reassured that the online nonsensical climate denial that seems so pervasive, really is not a reflection of reality. Dr. Mann leaves no important topic untouched. Talking about The Uninhabitable Earth, which I also read, I realize that my sense of hopelessness actually began with that depressing piece. Michael Mann’s work has had the opposite effect on me, and for that I am sincerely grateful.

Information from a Credible Author / Practitioner
I think we need to be careful about who we choose to believe. We are inundated with information and so-called information, it is almost impossible to discern what to believe and what not to believe. One of the first tests on a critical thinking checklist is to assess the credibility of the person you are listening to.
Dr. Mann is a practicing climatologist and has worked and studied in this field for decades. He has credibility. This book reflects a practical assessment of the current state of the climate war, written in a tone that is not alarming and debunks arguments by others in a respectful way (mostly).
This is a must-read book.

The science and the enemy
Absolute garbage. I have been trying to give this climate change(carbon war) a chance so I have been seeking videos and books with good data. It appears there isnt much at all. This book is written by a radical bent on destroying "the enemy". How can you keep repeating "the science" without presenting any data produced from the scientific method....? If u want to unify people maybe stop demonizing them. Typical american left vs right garbage. Written by a child in a mans body👎
