      Past, Present and Future
    • It is worse, much worse, than you think. If your anxiety about global warming is dominated by fears of sea-level rise, you are barely scratching the surface of what terrors are possible. In California, wildfires now rage year-round, destroying thousands of homes. Across the US, "500-year" storms pummel communities month after month, and floods displace tens of millions annually. This is only a preview of the changes to come. And they are coming fast. Without a revolution in how billions of humans conduct their lives, parts of the Earth could become close to uninhabitable, and other parts horrifically inhospitable, as soon as the end of this century. In his travelogue of our near future, David Wallace-Wells brings into stark relief the climate troubles that await-food shortages, refugee emergencies, and other crises that will reshape the globe. But the world will be remade by warming in more profound ways as well, transforming our politics, our culture, our relationship to technology, and our sense of history. It will be all-encompassing, shaping and distorting nearly every aspect of human life as it is lived today. Like An Inconvenient Truth and Silent Spring before it, The Uninhabitable Earth is both a meditation on the devastation we have brought upon ourselves and an impassioned call to action. For just as the world was brought to the brink of catastrophe within the span of a lifetime, the responsibility to avoid it now belongs to a single generation

    • Die unbewohnbare Erde

      Leben nach der Erderwärmung - Aktualisierte Neuausgabe

      Die heute schon spürbaren und die schlimmstmöglichen Folgen der Klimaerwärmung sind das Thema des Journalisten David Wallace-Wells in diesem spektakulären Report. Wie kann und wird das Leben auf der Erde in nur 40, 50, 60 Jahren aussehen? Sicher ist: Heutige Teenager und Kinder werden noch erleben, wie sich die Bedingungen für die Menschheit auf der Erde dramatisch verschlechtern, sie werden erleben, wie der Planet in Teilen unbewohnbar wird. Wallace-Wells macht die vielen wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse, die die Mehrheit der Menschen oft gar nicht erreichen, begreifbar, ja fühlbar. Und am Ende steht die drängende Frage: Haben wir überhaupt noch eine Chance, das Unheil abzuwenden? Ein polarisierendes, aufrüttelndes und fesselndes Debattenbuch zu einem Thema, das der Menschheit unter den Nägeln brennt. »[Wallace-Wells] wirft einen düsteren Blick in die Zukunft. Keine Schwarzmalerei, sondern ein Szenario, das auf streng wissenschaftlichen Studien beruht.« ― ARD, ttt

      Die unbewohnbare Erde
    • Es peor, mucho peor, de lo que imaginas.Hoy, la subida del nivel del mar es una causa de alarma generalizada entre aquellos que ya han abandonado el sueño pernicioso de que el calentamiento global es un mito. Sin embargo, no es ni siquiera la punta del gigantesco iceberg de horrores inimaginables que amenazan la vida en la Tierra: incendios, huracanes, sequías, inundaciones... Todas estas inquietantes manifestaciones del cambio climático, ya recurrentes para millones de personas, son solo un adelanto de lo que está por llegar: hambrunas, plagas, un aire irrespirable, migraciones cada vez más masivas, el colapso económico e incluso conflictos armados globales.Con una precisión y una lucidez que estremecen, David Wallace-Wells construye el relato caleidoscópico de las consecuencias que tendrá, tan solo dentro de una generación, nuestra impasibilidad ante la crisis ecológica. Incidiendo con crudeza en cómo hemos fracasado al imaginar y, ante todo, promulgar un mejor porvenir, El planeta inhóspito nos transporta a un futuro inminente y nos sirve la reflexión definitiva de cómo hemos devastado nuestro propio hogar; todo ello en clave de una ferviente y aún más apremiante llamada al cambio.
