Authors Paul Warde, Libby Robin, and Sverker Sörlin trace the emergence of the concept of the environment following World War II, a period characterized by both hope for a new global order and fear of humans' capacity for almost limitless destruction. It was at this moment that a new idea and a new narrative about the planet-wide impact of people's behavior emerged, closely allied to anxieties for the future. With the rise of "the environment", the authors argue, came new expertise, making certain kinds of knowledge crucial to understanding the future of our planet.

Sie ist überall, ihre Biomasse ist weltweit größer als unsere: die Ameise. Prozentual zum Körpergewicht ist sie das einzige Tier, das mehr Gehirn hat als der Mensch. Ameisen legen Gärten an und züchten Pilze. Sie halten sich Blattläuse als Nutzvieh und verteidigen es gegen Räuber. Sie führen Kriege gegeneinander und versklaven andere Ameisen als Arbeitstiere, die wiederum bisweilen den Aufstand proben. In gewisser Weise sind Ameisen dem Menschen also sehr ähnlich. Ihre Gemeinschaften sind charakterisiert durch Arbeitsteilung, Kommunikation und Selbstorganisation.

Instead, they have waged a thirty-year campaign to blame individuals for climate change. The result has been disastrous for our planet. In The New Climate War, renowned scientist Michael E. Mann argues that all is not lost.
