520 "The most important book yet from the author of the
international bestseller The Shock Doctrine, a brilliant
explanation of why the climate crisis challenges us to
abandon the core "free market" ideology of our time,
restructure the global economy, and remake our political
systems. In short, either we embrace radical change
ourselves or radical changes will be visited upon our
physical world. The status quo is no longer an option. In
This Changes Everything Naomi Klein argues that climate
change isn't just another issue to be neatly filed between
taxes and health care. It's an alarm that calls us to fix
an economic system that is already failing us in many
ways. Klein meticulously builds the case for how massively
reducing our greenhouse emissions is our best chance to
simultaneously reduce gaping inequalities, re-imagine our
broken democracies, and rebuild our gutted local
economies. She exposes the ideological desperation of the
climate-change deniers, the messianic delusions of the
would-be geoengineers, and the tragic defeatism of too
many mainstream green initiatives. And she demonstrates
precisely why the market has not--and cannot--fix the
climate crisis but will instead make things worse, with
ever more extreme and ecologically damaging extraction
methods, accompanied by rampant disaster capitalism.
Klein argues that the changes to our relationship with
nature and one another that are required to respond to the
climate crisis humanely should not be viewed as grim
penance, but rather as a kind of gift--a catalyst to
transform broken economic and cultural priorities and to
heal long-festering historical wounds. And she documents
the inspiring movements that have already begun this
process: communities that are not just refusing to be
sites of further fossil fuel extraction but are building
the next, regeneration-based economies right now. Can we
pull off these changes in time? Nothing is certain.
Nothing except that climate change changes everything. And
for a very brief time, the nature of that change is still
up to us"--|cProvided by publisher
