Overshoot: How the World Surrendered to Climate Breakdown & The Ultimate Universal Choice

The book «Overshoot: How the World Surrendered to Climate Breakdown» by Andreas Malm (author of the bestselling *How to Blow Up a Pipeline*) and Wim Carton is the ultimate universal choice for those seeking a deep, revealing, and sharp analysis of the modern climate crisis. The work examines the forces driving the planet beyond the critical 1.5°C temperature increase limit.

The History of "Overshoot" & the Economic Pressures of Fossil Fuels

The authors present a relentless historical overview of the current phase of the crisis, revealing how the idea of "overshoot" has become officially accepted. While the fossil fuel industry records its greatest profits in history, huge amounts of capital continue to flow into the construction of pipelines, platforms, and mines—infrastructures that must be destroyed to keep the planet sustainable.

Climate Justice, Global South & Technological Illusions

The book offers a strict critique of the notion that the Earth can be "cooled" later in the century through unfeasible or unproven technologies. It highlights the consequences of climate collapse, especially for the most vulnerable populations in the Global South, raising critical questions about the priorities of the economic system in relation to the survival of the planet.

Compact Folding Storage, Book Care & Reading Instructions

Printed on high-quality paper, the book is easily stored in a compact folding-ready form on your bookshelf. It is recommended to keep it in a dry place, away from moisture and direct sunlight. It is an essential read for students of ecology, political economy, and environmental activism.
