Akshat Rathi Bücher

Sie sind jung und brauchen die Welt! Lasst sie uns gemeinsam schützen. 60 junge Leute auf der ganzen Welt zeigen uns wie. Im Kampf um unseren Planeten gibt es nicht nur Sündenböcke, sondern auch Vorbilder – die jungen Klima-Aktivisten. Egal, ob wir Erwachsene uns ihrer Sache verschrieben haben oder nicht: Von Asien bis Afrika, von Ozeanien bis Europa, von Amerika bis zur Antarktis finden junge Menschen unglaubliche Wege, um gegen die Klimakatastrophe zu kämpfen. Wie würden Sie verhindern, dass Millionen Strohhalme im Meer entsorgt werden? Wäre es nicht wunderbar, wenn eine Fußball-Mannschaft nach dem Spiel einen Baum für jedes gefallene Tor pflanzt? Halten Sie es für schier unmöglich, dass ein einzelner Mensch eine Regierung zum Handeln in Sachen Klima bewegt? Lassen Sie sich von den verblüffenden Ideen junger Menschen auf der ganzen Welt dazu inspirieren, Ihren Teil zur Rettung unseres Planeten beizutragen. Mit einem exklusiven Vorwort der deutschen Klima-Aktivistin Raina Ivanova.

What if the solution to the climate crisis is . . . capitalism?Our age will be defined by the climate emergency. But contrary to the doomist narrative that's taken hold, the world has already begun deploying the solutions needed to deal with it.On a journey across five continents, Climate Capitalism tracks the unlikely heroes driving the fight against climate change. From the Chinese bureaucrat who did more to make electric cars a reality than Elon Musk, to the Danish students who helped to build the world's longest-operating wind turbine, or the American oil executive building the technology that can reverse climate damages, we meet the people working to scale technologies that are finally able to bend the emissions curve.Through stories that bring people, policy and technology together, Akshat Rathi reveals how the green economy is not only possible, but profitable. This inspiring blend of business, science, and history provides the framework for ensuring that future generations can live in prosperity and that the wheels of progress don't falter.
