More about the book

The book explores the duality of human advancement amidst the looming threats of global warming and nuclear conflict. It delves into how humanity's technological prowess brings both creativity and destruction, represented by the metaphor of a candle that illuminates yet consumes itself. As environmental crises unfold—such as wildfires, melting ice sheets, and rising sea levels—the narrative underscores the urgent need to confront these challenges that endanger civilization and its agricultural foundations.
