The page-turner on the climate crisis - now as an updated new edition in paperback
We are in a thriller. You and me. Not as reader and author.
We are in a thriller. You and me. Not as reader and author.
As actors. The thriller in question has been writing itself since time immemorial and keeps changing its title. Its current title is Climate Crisis. Pandemic. Digitalisation. Terror. In the past it was called Cold War, Arms Race, before that Second World War, First World War.
But never have we been exposed to so many potential horrors at the same time as today. So if you had temporarily withdrawn your attention from climate protection to deal with a pandemic or the war in Ukraine, that is simply human. Which doesn't change the fact that climate change is arguably the greatest existential threat in our history, and just like a virus, it doesn't let you talk to it. Time to get back to action. The good news is: we can master the challenge. With knowledge, willpower, positive thinking, creativity, a love of life on our planet and a little personal heroism, just like you need in a thriller.
Scientifically sound, exciting and never without humour, Frank Schätzing creates various scenarios of our future, in which we sometimes fail, sometimes prevail. We get to know the protagonists and antagonists, those responsible in politics, business and society, meet activists, deniers and conspiracy theorists, before the view of the overwhelming panorama of what is possible opens up and the author shows us ways in which we can escape the climate trap and everything can still be good, no, better. Saving the world is possible - if we only want to.
