THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER*A Financial Times Most Anticipated Book of 2024* Can a graphic novel save the planet? Perhaps. Elizabeth Kolbert Is this the end of the world? Perhaps not. In this eye-opening, hopeful and hugely entertaining bestseller, a climate expert takes a leading graphic novelist on a journey to understand the profound changes that our planet is undergoing. The scientist, Jean-Marc Jancovici, walks us through just about everything: from the innermost workings of our minds to toothbrushes, office jobs, and oil; ancient history and modern geopolitics; economics and ecology; the unfolding climate crisis and its consequences for us all. As he describes the world we live in – a world whose future is deeply uncertain – the artist, Christophe Blain, listens and draws.Coming face to face with global warming, the unlikely duo – along with Mother Nature, Pop Eye and Jiminy Cricket, among others – create a picture of what the solution to our predicament actually looks like. Yes, we have a fossil-fuel problem, but simply switching to renewable energy won t fix it. We can and must rethink everything: our energy supply, our economies and our whole world. They leave us with an inspiring vision of the future in which food, education, housing, transport and communities – in other words, all of us – work together and, with a few technological fixes, succeed in creating a world without end.
