Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This book is the sequel to "Making Sense of Climate Change" (2024) and it explains how society's failure to control carbon emissions from fossil fuels leads to economic chaos and a dire climate future. The pathway to a bankrupt society is depicted in a "connecting-the-dots" chart that shows worsening climate disasters resulting from global heating increases and tipping points. This chart also shows economic chaos resulting from rising disaster losses and increasing financial risks. Bankruptcy is not limited to financial status - it also includes diminished hopes for a better future. Dread and despair are shown to be products of economic chaos and a dire climate future.The current climate change situation is explained, for example by how climate disasters are evolving to be more extreme and devastating and how tipping points worsen climate disasters. Climate-related financial risks are also outlined. Remedies to the climate situation, discussed in "Making Sense of Climate Change", are also updated and summarized.Climate Policy
