12 short and brutal chapters, each of
which foretells a specific dimension of our
forecast doom
- Heat Death
- The End of Food
- Dying Oceans
- Unbreathable Air
- Plagues of Warming …
- every return flight from London to New York costs the Arctic
three square metres of ice
- for every half degree of warming, societies see between a 10
and 20% increase in the likelihood of armed conflict
- global plastic production is expected to triple by 2050, by which
point there will be more plastic than fish in the planet’s oceans.
