En savoir plus sur le livre

In this deeply human narrative, the bestselling author of The World Without Us presents a ten-year study of our planet's precarious state and what it means to be human amid an existential crisis. His uplifting work explores the core optimism of humanity against unprecedented odds. Traveling the globe, he witnesses the devastation of climate change and meets those striving to address our past mistakes. From the flooding Marshall Islands to wetlands renewal in Iraq, and from the Netherlands to the Korean DMZ, he observes the best of humanity battling heat, hunger, and rising tides. The author profiles engineers, scientists, economists, and psychiatrists who devise innovative responses to an uncertain future. We stand at a critical juncture in history, where our collective actions threaten our existence. This book serves as a remedy for climate anxiety, addressing a crucial gap in the global conversation: having crossed the point of no return in our fight against climate change, how do we feel, behave, act, plan, and dream as we face a future different from what we once envisioned?
