Über diesen Titel

A cautionary but optimistic book about the world’s changing climate and the fate of humanity, from two of the architects of the 2015 Paris Agreement. • "One of the most inspiring books I've ever read." —Yuval Harari

Christiana Figueres and Tom Rivett-Carnac outline two possible scenarios for our planet. In one, they describe what life on Earth will be like by 2050 if we fail to meet the Paris Agreement’s climate targets. In the other, they lay out what it will be like to live in a regenerative world that has net-zero emissions. They argue for confronting the climate crisis head-on, with determination and optimism. The Future We Choose presents our options and tells us what governments, corporations, and each of us can, and must, do to fend off disaster.

Kritikerstimmen

"Tom Rivett-Carnac, have penned a book that shepherds climate activism from changing mental states to changing the world...the authors recommend a mindset for climate activism that rests on three attitudes: radical optimism, endless abundance and radical regeneration."
Forbes

"Inspiring... A practically minded manifesto for personal action in the face of climate change."
Kirkus Reviews

“The Paris Agreement was a landmark for humankind. In this timely and important book, two of the principal creators of that agreement show us why and how we can now realize its promise. I hope it is widely read and acted on.”
—Jane Goodall, author of In the Shadow of Man

“This is one of the most inspiring books I have ever read. The book takes a hard look at the frightening realities of climate change, but concludes that humanity can still deal with this threat. Moreover, the book presents the existential challenge of climate change as a unique opportunity to build a more just world and to make ourselves better people. Most importantly, the book adopts a very practical approach, and suggests 10 concrete actions that each of us can take in order to create a better future for all the residents of planet earth. I hope we all take this message to heart.”
—Yuval Harari, bestselling author of Sapiens and 21 Lessons for the 21st Century.

"There could not be a more important book."
—Richard Branson

"This could be the most important wake-up call of our times."
Professor Klaus Schwab, CEO World Economic Forum

"Figueres and Rivett-Carnac dare to tell us how our response can create a better, fairer world."
—Naomi Klein

good mix of examples, expiration, and pointing out current pain points. Drawing a sketch of possible future with ideas, and also taking into account current realistic situation

I love the focus of personal agency in this book. After enjoying the authors podcast (outrage and optimism) over the last two years, I discovered that they had already published a book and checked it out.

This book is a sober reminder of the situation we are in, but instead of freaking out about it, they illustrate that we still have a chance to turn it all around. With some helpful suggestions on how we as individuals can contribute to the solutions and directly benefit from new constructive habits.

The tone, speed and manner of their voices retained my attention and calmly motivated me to take the climate crisis seriously, enough to recommend the book but not sound like an finatic alarmist.

Thank you Tom and Christiana, you've created something special here.

A clear and helpful perspective on the climate crisis
