DESCRIPTION

A decade to confront the climate emergency
A polemical book about climate change and what is needed to confront the climate emergency.
REVISED AND UPDATED WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION

‘Brave and unflinching in setting out the reality of the hell towards which we’re headed, but even more urgent, passionate and compelling about the grounds for hope if we change course fast enough, Hope in Hell is a powerful call to arms from one of Britain’s most eloquent and trusted campaigners.’
-- Caroline Lucas, MP

'Is there time? Just. Is there hope? Plenty. Hope in Hell is brave, urgent and wise - in fact, one of the most important books any of us may read.'  -- John Vidal

Climate change is the defining issue of our time. We know, beyond reasonable doubt, what the science now tells us. Just as climate change is accelerating, so too must we – summoning up a greater sense of urgency, courage and shared endeavour than humankind has ever seen before. 

And we don’t get to defer this endeavour even as we struggle to bring the continuing pandemic under control. Indeed, it’s crucial that we use this moment to promote economic recovery in a way that simultaneously addresses the Climate Emergency.
 
Fortunately, more and more people around the world now realise this is going to be a massive challenge for the rest of their lives. In Hope in Hell, Porritt confronts that dilemma head on. He believes we still have time to do what needs to be done, but only if we move now – and move together. In this ultimately upbeat book, he explores all these reasons to be hopeful: new technology; the power of innovation; the mobilisation of young people – and a sense of intergenerational solidarity as older generations come to understand their own obligation to secure a safer world for their children and grandchildren.
