Más información sobre el libro

With a new afterword, this #1 New York Times bestseller reveals the grim realities of climate change, emphasizing that the dangers extend far beyond rising sea levels. It explores potential catastrophes such as food shortages, refugee crises, climate wars, and economic collapse. Described as an "epoch-defining book" and "this generation's Silent Spring," it serves as both a glimpse into a troubling future and a reflection on its implications for global politics, technology, nature, capitalism, and human progress. The narrative is an urgent call to action, highlighting that the responsibility to avert disaster rests on today's generation. Critics have called it "the most terrifying book" they've read, noting its scientific grounding and Old Testament-like urgency. The meticulously documented account details the cascading catastrophes awaiting our warming planet. While some may find the outlook alarmist, the author’s alarm is palpable and justified. The prose is described as potent and evocative, steering clear of conventional climatology language in favor of vivid, engaging storytelling. This best-selling work resonates with contemporary fears, encouraging readers to confront the reality of climate change and its far-reaching consequences.
