Sky world news / In his cult book, Bill McKibben was one of the first to warn about climate change.
Thirty years later, the journalist draws up a new inventory of the planet and shows that the danger is greater. From the dying cedars of Lebanon to the recent wildfires in Australia, the land we can live on is shrinking on six continents. Moreover, another threat has emerged: new technologies - such as artificial intelligence and robotics - are jeopardizing human diversity.
How did we get to this tipping point? How to cope ? A pioneer in ecological activism, the author retraces our history and offers ways to save not only our planet but also human life.
Bill McKibben is an author, journalist and environmental activist who received the 2014 Right Livelihood Awards, sometimes referred to as the "alternative Nobel".
His book is considered the first work on climate change for the general public and has been published in 24 languages. He is one of the founders of 350.org, the first global and grassroots movement against climate change.
