Description
Why, after thirtyyears of international climate negotiations to reduce carbon emissions, has the
UN process failed to deliver a survivable outcome? Nick Breeze goes behind the
scenes at the UN COPs, from Paris to Dubai, to find out what on Earth is going
on Most people tend to turn away, perhaps understandably,
from the key existential issue of the day: climate change or, some
would say more accurately, climate collapse. Nick Breeze tells the engaging, very human story of
successive COP conferences over the past decade: it is a tale of imperfection,
failure even, but not yet defeat. So far, the UN process has achieved almost
the exact opposite of what it first set out to achieve at the Rio Earth Summit
in 1992. Nick shows clearly that it is not Extinction Rebellion, Just
Stop Oil nor any other climate protesters who are the extremists; the true
extremists are the policymakers who consistently undermine faltering efforts to
reduce emissions. Repeatedly claiming to be saving us whilst allowing carbon
emissions to continue rising, governments have failed their people on climate. Nick shows us how, why and what we can do about it. The
public remains largely uninformed about climate change and, for the most part,
those who seek to draw attention to the issue are seen as 'crazy'. There
remains a terrifying gap between scientific reality and political action. Packed with his own experiences and insights from expert
interviewees, this page-turning account is less about the intricacies of the
science and more about the mainstream perception of how we are understanding
and responding to the problem.
