Ecocide: Why radical interventions are needed now to stop climate apocalypse

by Jerry Kroth

Ecocide is a concise review of climate change science which paints an almost apocalyptic picture of where the planet is heading. The situation is nothing short of an emergency, and this text presents both conventional and radical regimes for how we can prevent 1.5 degrees of warming. If humanity fails—and we have less than 10 years to drawdown emissions by 50 percent—we will rapidly be on our way to two degrees and breaching three horrific tipping points of no return. The remedies are drastic. the solutions are not easy, but it is all still within the realm of possibility. There is hope, but it is dangling by a gossamer thread which depends on global commitment and action today, that is to say, Now! This is the third edition updated with 2023 data.Publisher reviews “Ecocide offers an outrageous solution for an outrageous problem!” Prof Marilyn Strathern, Cambridge University, U.K "Thorough, controversial and simply brilliant!"
