The book explores climate change as a social issue, highlighting the conflict between capitalist development and the Earth's physical limits. It analyzes how these limits have been managed over time and investigates the connections between consumption patterns, energy systems, and climate change during the eras of Fordism and finance-driven capitalism. Through this lens, it critiques the sustainability of current economic practices in relation to environmental challenges.
