On fire : the (burning) case for a green new deal / Naomi Klein.

Includes index (pages [299]-309).

For more than twenty years, Naomi Klein has been the foremost chronicler of the economic war waged on both people and the planet--and an unapologetic champion of a sweeping environmental agenda with justice at its center. On Fire: The (Burning) Case for a Green New Deal gathers more than a decade of her impassioned writing for the first time and pairs it with new material on the staggeringly high stakes of our immediate political and economic choices. Delving into topics ranging from the clash between ecological time and our culture of "perpetual now", to the soaring history of humans evolving rapidly in the face of grave threats, to rising white supremacy and fortressed borders as a form of "climate barbarism", this is a rousing call to action for a planet on the brink--Back cover.
