Feeding the world, climate change, biodiversity, antibiotics, plastics -
the list of concerns seems endless. But what is most pressing, what are
the knock-on effects of our actions, and what should we do first? Do we
all need to become vegetarian? How can we fly in a low-carbon world?
Should we frack? How can we take control of technology? Does it all come
down to population? And, given the global nature of the challenges we
now face, what on Earth can any of us do? Fortunately, Mike Berners-Lee
has crunched the numbers and plotted a course of action that is
practical and even enjoyable. There is No Planet B maps it out in an
accessible and entertaining way, filled with astonishing facts and
analysis.
For the first time you'll find big-picture perspective
on the environmental and economic challenges of the day laid out in one
place, and traced through to the underlying roots - questions of how we
live and think. This book will shock you, surprise you - and then make
you laugh. And you'll find practical and even inspiring ideas for what
you can actually do to help humanity thrive on this - our only - planet.
