Description

The no-nonsense, straight-talking, myth-busting guide to climate change, now reissued with a new cover 'I defy you to read this book and not feel motivated to change' The Times We know that climate change is happening. We know that it could, if the worst predictions come true, destroy the conditions which make human life possible. Only one question is now worth asking- can it be stopped? In Heat, George Monbiot shows that it can. In every case, he supports his proposals with a rigorous investigation into what works, what doesn't, how much it costs and what the problems might be. He wages war on bad ideas as energetically as he promotes good ones. He is not afraid to attack anyone - friend or foe - whose claims are false or whose figures have been fudged. Heat also contains a breath-taking new exposure of the corporations trying to stop us from taking action. Inspiring, original, burning with energy, this book could change the world.
