"Building a society that operates within ecological limits requires the liberation of our political imagination and this book helps us do just that" - Astra Taylor, author of The Age of Insecurity.
Half-Earth Socialism is a radical call to action to save the planet, featuring bold proposals to restore nature to half of the earth to absorb carbon emissions and restore biodiversity. It envisions a rapid transition to renewable energy, combined with drastic cuts in consumption, as well as a shift towards global vegetarianism to reduce energy and land use.
As this fascinating and provocative book emphasizes, we must humbly accept that humanity cannot fully understand or control the earth - but we can design new energy systems, extensive nature restoration, and food production for the common good.
"Half-Earth Socialism embraces the harshest choices, the strictest ecological limits, and thinks with them to reinvent climate utopianism" - Richard Seymour, New Statesman.
"A vegan cookbook combined with Minecraft... turns the age of dystopia into a renewal of the utopian genre... empowers readers to write their own recipes for a future at risk" - Andreas Malm, author of Fossil Capital.
"An outstanding manifesto... imagining the immediate liberation of the entire world from the grip of capitalist exploitation" - Le Monde diplomatique.
