Beschreibung
Don't eat meat. Travel by train. Shower less. And above all, don't expect anything from corporations. Climate change has now become a generally accepted fact. Its existence, manifestations, and threats are hardly disputed anymore. However, it would be premature to rejoice over the victory of scientific knowledge and common sense: it's just that deniers, skeptics, and disinformers have changed their strategy. Therefore, while no one denies the climate crisis today, there are even more disputes about what to do about it — and whether to do anything at all. In the public and media space, in addition to scientists and politicians, corporate PR departments, lobbying groups, and mysterious think tanks also speak on environmental issues. Their goal is clear: to outwardly express concern for the planet, while in reality defending the status quo. The new climate war is thus fought not so much in the scientific field as in the media one. Climatologist Michael E. Mann has been participating in this war in the name of science for years, and in his latest book, he shows what is at stake.
