Peak Everything addresses many of the cultural, psychological and practical changes we will have to make as nature rapidly dictates our new limits. This latest book from Richard Heinberg, author of three of the most important books on Peak Oil, touches on the most important aspects of the human condition at this unique moment in time.
A combination of wry commentary and sober forecasting on subjects as diverse as farming and industrial design, this book tells how we might make the transition from The Age of Excess to the Era of Modesty with grace and satisfaction....

Story2
How serious are the threats to our environment? Here is one measure of the problem: if we continue to do exactly what we are doing, with no growth in the human population or the world economy, the world in the latter part of this century will be unfit to live in. Of course human activities are not holding at current levels—they are accelerating, dramatically—and so, too, is the pace of climate disruption, biotic impoverishment, and toxification.

Something's gone badly awry with environmentalism. We faithfully separate our waste into different streams, but wonder whether it really makes a difference. Global companies announce their commitment to carbon negativity while simultaneously sponsoring oil conferences. American businesses, communities, and individuals assiduously measure their carbon footprints, then implement voluntary emissions-reduction programs, all while trumpeting their do-gooderism. The problem is, none of this will make a dent in solving the civilizational threat of climate change.

A climate catastrophe can be avoided, but only with rapid and sustained investment in companies and projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. To the surprise of many, this has already begun. Investors are abandoning fossil-fuel companies and other polluting industries and financing businesses offering climate solutions. Rising risks, evolving social norms, government policies, and technological innovation are all accelerating this movement of capital.

China’s meteoric rise to economic powerhouse might be charted with dams. Every river in the country has been tapped to power exploding cities and factories - every river but one. Running through one of the richest natural areas in the world, the Nujiang’s raging waters were on the verge of being dammed when a 2004 government moratorium halted construction. Might the Chinese dragon bow to the "Angry River"? Would Beijing put local people and their land ahead of power and profit? Could this remote region actually become a model for sustainable growth? Ed Grumbine traveled to the far corners of China’s Yunnan province to find out.

Rejecting the old Left/Right ideologies, Rand develops a more pragmatic view capable of delivering practical solutions to this critical problem. A renewed capitalism harnessed to the task is the only way we might replace fossil fuels fast enough to mitigate severe climate risk. If we leave our dogma at the door, Rand argues, we might just build an economy that survives the century.

Sometimes solving climate change seems impossibly complex. This book offers hope. Drawing on the latest research, Mark Jaccard shows us how to recognize the absolutely essential actions (decarbonizing electricity and transport) and policies (regulations that phase out coal plants and gasoline vehicles, carbon tariffs). Rather than feeling paralyzed and pursuing ineffective efforts, we can all make a few key changes in our lifestyles to reduce emissions, to contribute to the urgently needed affordable energy transition in developed and developing countries.

Les mythes économiques contemporains ont pour fonction principale de détourner l'attention des citoyens des véritables enjeux dont ils devraient se soucier et débattre. Nos mythologies économiques sont des mystifications politiques.

Ohne Kapitalismus in die Zukunft. Das Wirtschaftswachstum der Moderne versprach uns ein Leben im Wohlstand. Jedoch wird durch die Umweltkrise klar, dass es gerade das Wirtschaftswachstum ist, das die Grundlagen des menschlichen Wohlstands untergräbt. Gleichzeitig hält uns der Glaube, dass der Erfolg im Kampf gegen den Klimawandel davon abhängt, wie viel jeder Einzelne von uns tut, davon ab, einen notwendigen Systemsturz einzuleiten. In diesem Hörbuch analysiert der japanische Philosoph Kohei Saito die Verflechtung von Kapital, Natur und Gesellschaft im Anthropozän.

Questo è un libro sul surriscaldamento globale, sulla devastazione degli ecosistemi, sull’estinzione di massa ma non sull’Apocalisse. È, anzi, un libro sulla speranza. Possiamo ancora salvare il mondo, possiamo ancora cambiare il nostro destino, possiamo ancora sopravvivere all’antropocene. Dobbiamo però ripensare completamente il nostro modo di produrre e di consumare, abbandonando il paradigma della crescita economica infinita e dell’accumulazione, superando lo sfruttamento selvaggio delle risorse naturali.

Economics for People and the Planet, a collection of essays by James K. Boyce on the environment, inequality, and the economy, argues that there is not an inexorable trade-off between advancing human well-being and having a clean and safe environment. The goal of economic policy should be to grow the good things that improve our well-being and environmental quality and reduce the bad things that harm humans and nature. To reorient the economy for these ends, we will need to achieve a more egalitarian distribution of wealth and power.
