Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The climate crisis is real. So is our capacity to transform. Climate change is usually described through what we stand to lose. The Green Metamorphosis asks a different question: What could we build in response? From clean energy and electric mobility to healthier cities, new ways of working and more resilient communities, Felix Atherton explores how the response to climate change can accelerate technological and social transformation without denying the damage the crisis is already causing. Drawing on research, real-world examples and a deliberately optimistic vision of 2050, the book examines how pressure can become a catalyst for innovation, how rapidly technologies can change once tipping points are reached, and why a better future requires more than fear, guilt and sacrifice. The Green Metamorphosis makes the case for something more demanding than optimism: grounded agency. The future is neither a catastrophe already written nor a better world waiting to arrive by itself. It is something we build.
