520    The science on climate change has been clear for a very 
       long time now. Yet despite decades of appeals, mass street
       protests, petition campaigns, and peaceful demonstrations,
       we are still facing a booming fossil fuel industry, rising
       seas, rising emission levels, and a rising temperature. 
       With the stakes so high, why haven't we moved beyond 
       peaceful protest? In this lyrical manifesto, noted climate
       scholar (and saboteur of SUV tires and coal mines) Andreas
       Malm makes an impassioned call for the climate movement to
       escalate its tactics in the face of ecological collapse. 
       We need, he argues, to force fossil fuel extraction to 
       stop--with our actions, with our bodies, and by defusing 
       and destroying its tools. We need, in short, to start 
       blowing up some oil pipelines. Offering a counter-history 
       of how mass popular change has occurred, from the 
       democratic revolutions overthrowing dictators to the 
       movement against apartheid and for women's suffrage, Malm 
       argues that the strategic acceptance of property 
       destruction and violence has been the only route for 
       revolutionary change. In a braided narrative that moves 
       from the forests of Germany and the streets of London to 
       the deserts of Iraq, Malm offers us an incisive discussion
       of the politics and ethics of pacifism and violence, 
       democracy and social change, strategy and tactics, and a 
       movement compelled by both the heart and the mind. Here is
       how we fight in a world on fire
