Krátky popis
'A landmark work on perhaps the essential question of our time' -
David Wallace-Wells, author of The Uninhabitable Earth In this
ground-breaking book, environmental journalist, Peter
Schwartzstein, takes the reader on the first on-the-ground
exploration of climate change's contribution to global conflict.
From the ravaged villages of Iraq, where ISIS has used drought as a
recruiting tool and weapon of terror, to the pirate-ridden waters
of Bangladesh - and drawing on more than a decade of reporting from
dozens of countries - Schwartzstein writes about the unexpected
ways in which climate change is feeding global unrest and conflict.
Through the stories of the soldiers, farmers, spies and others
affected around the world, he makes sense of a form of conflict
that remains poorly understood, even as it devastates the lives of
so many millions of people.While researching this book,
Schwartzstein was chased by kidnappers, detained by police and
told, in no uncertain terms, that he was no longer welcome in
certain countries. Yet, as he recounts, these personal brushes with
violence are simply a hint of the conflict simmering in our warming
world. As Schwartztein's unparalleled reporting shows, there's
nothing inevitable about climate violence.In fact, as he sets out,
the same stresses that are pitching people against one another can
even help bring them back together.
