Produktinformationen "Elemental: The New Geography of Climate Change and How We Survive It"

'An extraordinary mastery of geopolitics, combining years on the ground in the most challenging places, a raw instinct for politics and a deep ethical concern for the world in the face of climate catastrophe. A masterpiece.' - RORY STEWART<BR><BR>'A powerful, passionate and utterly convincing book.' - LORD PETER RICKETTS<BR><BR>From the water-stressed mountains of the Arabian Peninsula to the wildfires raging through America's most populated regions, the climate crisis is already affecting the lives of millions. As natural disasters and increased scarcity shake the established world order to its core, Elemental reveals an alternative future is still possible.<BR><BR>Within this century, the new era of extreme weather will threaten India's ability to grow rice, prevent southern Europe's farms from providing the continent with fresh produce, and make building in Saudi Arabia near impossible. While such unprecedented challenges inevitably drive conflict, they will also encourage innovation, upending economies and global power structures to create opportunities for new players and pioneering ways of living.<BR><BR>In this groundbreaking study, Arthur Snell visits rapidly changing societies to show how we can live on a warming planet. He presents a vision in which Africa powers Europe with solar energy, where autocratic oil states are no more, and new shipping routes across the melting Arctic bring Asia, Europe and North America closer than ever before. In Russia, huge areas of highly fertile land will be exposed by the melting ice for whoever can seize it, while China's stranglehold on rare minerals looks set to make it the world's leading superpower.<BR><BR>Through four sections - Earth, Air, Fire and Water - Elemental blends reportage with analysis and interviews with key experts, policymakers and politicians, to reveal the turbulent future we face - and the choices we need to make to avert disaster.

Erde, Luft, Feuer, Wasser
Die vier Elemente der MachtSchon heute steht fest, dass die Ziele des Pariser Klimaabkommens verfehlt werden. Jährlich verursachen Hitze, Hunger und Krankheiten etwa 250 000 Todesfälle. Auch dass wir Europäer im Kampf um Rohstoffe gegenüber China, Russland und den USA das Nachsehen haben werden, scheint unabwendbar. So weit, so schlimm. Aber wussten Sie auch, dass Afrika künftig Europa mit Solarenergie versorgen könnte? Dass es in nicht allzu ferner Zukunft keine autokratischen Ölstaaten mehr geben wird und neue Schifffahrtsrouten durch die schwindende Arktis führen könnten, die Asien, Europa und Nordamerika näher zusammenbringen?Der Geopolitik-Experte Arthur Snell präsentiert seine hoffnungsvolle Vision unserer Welt: <BR>'Dieses Buch will keine Prognosen stellen, sondern ein Leitfaden für die Zukunft sein. Wir sollten akzeptieren, dass die Klimakrise unsere Welt bis zur Unkenntlichkeit verändern wird. Und darauf müssen wir uns jetzt vorbereiten.'
