Takeaways
Description
In On Fire: The (Burning) Case for a Green New Deal, Naomi Klein argues that climate change is a crisis of capitalism, not the environment. Over the past ten years, Klein has been an impassioned chronicler of the economic war waged on both people and planet—and an unapologetic champion of a sweeping environmental agenda with justice at its center. In lucid, elegant dispatches from the front lines of contemporary natural disaster, she pens surging, indispensable essays for a wide public: prescient advisories and dire warnings of what future awaits us if we refuse to act, as well as hopeful glimpses of a far better future.
