Showing results for "Oxygen" in Post-Apocalyptic

In 2137, each person is fitted with nanotechnology that measures every breath they take. Each person has an oxygen quota of 10 million litres. When they have used this up, they receive a letter telling them they have less than a day to live. But the rich people in Luxor City can buy Blue Oxygen–an oxygen replacement that does not use up a person’s quota. Jake thinks this system is unfair.

From the author of the best-selling and award-winning travel memoir Falling Uphill comes a prophetic dystopian novel. What if global warming isn’t the problem, but a symptom of something much worse? Orphaned as a boy by a natural disaster that suffocated his village in Cameroon, Mykelti has dedicated his life to ensuring it never happens again. Now a renowned paleoclimatologist, he discovers the greatest mass extinctions in Earth’s history were caused by cataclysmic oxygen depletion. And it has begun again, this time due to humanity’s rampant industrialization.

In 2112, dystopia is upon us, and the United Nations Authority is trying to stop energy and technology behemoth GIATCOM from destroying society once and for all. At the vortex of this futuristic struggle is 21st-century inventor Dr. Ben Richards, who created a way to harness wind power, a clean and renewable energy that could have changed the course of humanity if he hadn’t died under mysterious circumstances.
