Stories have always enabled people to make sense of the world and others, and this book encourages a radical rethinking of how we tell stories about climate change. This book proposes that, while climate change may be a result of policy implementation and the incompatibility of capitalism with our finite resources, a narrative failure is also inhibiting our ability to imagine alternative futures.
Considering the contrasting perspectives of writer Amitav Ghosh and theorist Mark Bould, the book reconciles their storytelling for criminologists and all those concerned about—and working towards avoiding—catastrophic climate change.
