Greta Thunberg's speeches shook the world. With The Climate Book,
she has created an essential tool for everyone who wants to help
save it. It seems like an impossible task: secure a safe future for
life on Earth, acting at a scale and speed that the world has never
seen, in the face of vast and powerful forces--not just oil tycoons
and governments, but the changing climate system itself.The odds
are against us, and we are running out of time. But it doesn't have
to be this way. Around the world, geophysicists and mathematicians,
oceanographers and meteorologists, engineers, economists,
psychologists and philosophers have been using their expertise to
develop a deep understanding of the crises we face.Greta Thunberg
has created The Climate Book in partnership with over one hundred
of these experts in order to equip us all with this knowledge.
Alongside them, Greta shares her own stories of learning,
demonstrating, and uncovering greenwashing around the world,
revealing the extent to which we have been kept in the dark. This
is one of our biggest problems, she shows, but also our greatest
source of hope.Once we are given the full picture, we will be able
to act--and if a schoolchild's strike could ignite a global
protest, what could we do collectively if we tried?The Climate Book
shows that we all have the responsibility of being alive at the
most decisive time in the history of humanity, and that, together,
we can do the seemingly impossible. But it has to be us, and it has
to be now.
V januári 1965 Gabriel García Márquez cestoval s rodinou na
dovolenku do Acapulca, keď odrazu dostal nápad. Začul vravu
mestečka Macondo. Už vedel, ako napíše svoj nový román. Vrátil sa
domov, zatvoril sa do pracovne, a keď z nej po osemnástich
mesiacoch vyšiel, v ruke držal 1 300 strán rukopisu a bol šťastný.
Román Sto rokov samoty prvý raz vyšiel v roku 1967, Márquez mal
vtedy 39 rokov a svet si navždy zapamätal jeho meno. Dnes je román
považovaný za jedno z najvýznamnejších diel latinskoamerickej a
svetovej literatúry. Je komponovaný z množstva reálnych aj
fantazijných epizód a rozpráva o pôvabných i krutých príhodách
šiestich generácií rodiny Buendíovcov z fiktívneho mestečka
Macondo.
