Naomi Klein, author of the #1 international bestsellers, The Shock
Doctrine and No Logo, returns with This Changes Everything, a
must-read on how the climate crisis needs to spur transformational
political change Forget everything you think you know about global
warming. It's not about carbon - it's about capitalism. The good
news is that we can seize this existential crisis to transform our
failed economic system and build something radically better. In her
most provocative book yet, Naomi Klein, author of the global
bestsellers The Shock Doctrine and No Logo, tackles the most
profound threat humanity has ever faced: the war our economic model
is waging against life on earth. Klein exposes the myths that are
clouding the climate debate. You have been told the market will
save us, when in fact the addiction to profit and growth is digging
us in deeper every day. You have been told it's impossible to get
off fossil fuels when in fact we know exactly how to do it - it
just requires breaking every rule in the "free-market" playbook:
reining in corporate power, rebuilding local economies and
reclaiming our democracies. You have also been told that humanity
is too greedy and selfish to rise to this challenge. In fact, all
around the world, the fight back for the next economy is already
succeeding in ways both surprising and inspiring. Climate change,
Klein argues, is a civilizational wake-up call, a powerful message
delivered in the language of fires, floods, storms, and droughts.
Confronting it is no longer about changing the light bulbs. It's
about changing the world - before the world changes so drastically
that no one is safe. Either we leap - or we sink. Once a decade,
Naomi Klein writes a book that redefines its era. No Logo did so
for globalization. The Shock Doctrine changed the way we think
about austerity. This Changes Everything is about to upend the
debate about the stormy era already upon us.
