by Ian Angus (Editor), Judy Rebick (Foreword by)
While corporations continue with business as usual, climate change is rapidly expanding the gap between rich and poor, according to this group of anticapitalists from five continents. Their essays here cover topics from food shortages and carbon trading to perspectives from indigenous peoples, and the authors make a compelling case that saving the world from climate catastrophe will require much more than tinkering with technology or taxes. They argue only radical social change can prevent irreversible damage to the earth and civilization.
