The 21st century is shaping up to be the era in which humanity must confront an unprecedented challenge: climate change. From the early scientific studies that warned of rising global temperatures to the current images of fires, hurricanes, and devastating droughts flooding the media, climate change has ceased to be a distant threat and has become an inescapable reality that affects every corner of the planet.
This book, The Century of Climate Change, is an invitation to thoroughly explore the impact of this phenomenon on our society, economy, politics, culture, and the daily lives of billions of people. It is not just a technical analysis of causes and consequences; it is also a narrative about how climate change is altering global power dynamics, forcing entire communities to migrate, redefining agriculture, and transforming the economy towards a model of sustainability.
As the impacts of climate change become increasingly palpable, resistance also arises. Social movements advocating for the environment have taken on a crucial role in pressuring governments and corporations to reduce carbon emissions, while scientists, technologists, and activists propose creative and transformative solutions to halt the deterioration of ecosystems and avoid the worst projections. This book also pays tribute to all those voices-from youth to the most vulnerable communities-that have raised their call for help and action in defense of the Earth.
The Century of Climate Change examines both the complexities of the problem and the possible solutions, without shying away from the difficulties of implementation and conflicting interests. Readers will discover not only the devastating effects of this phenomenon but also the human creativity and hope that drive the global community towards building a more sustainable future.
It is our generation that holds the responsibility of steering the course. This book is a tool for understanding the magnitude of the challenge, an analysis of the effects of climate change on all aspects of our lives, and, above all, an urgent call to action.
