<p><b>THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER<br>*A <i>Financial Times</i> Most Anticipated Book of 2024*</b><br><br><b>"Can a graphic novel save the planet? Perhaps." - Elizabeth Kolbert</b><br><br><i>Is this the end of the world? Perhaps not. </i><br><br>In this eye-opening, hopeful and hugely entertaining bestseller, a climate expert takes a leading graphic novelist on a journey to understand the profound changes that our planet is undergoing. The scientist, Jean-Marc Jancovici, walks us through just about everything: from the innermost workings of our minds to toothbrushes, office jobs, and oil; ancient history and modern geopolitics; economics and ecology; the unfolding climate crisis and its consequences for us all. As he describes the world we live in - a world whose future is deeply uncertain - the artist, Christophe Blain, listens and draws.<br><br>Coming face to face with global warming, the unlikely duo - along with Mother Nature, Pop Eye and Jiminy Cricket, among others - create a picture of what the solution to our predicament actually looks like. Yes, we have a fossil-fuel problem, but simply switching to renewable energy won't fix it. We can and must rethink everything: our energy supply, our economies and our whole world. They leave us with an inspiring vision of the future in which food, education, housing, transport and communities - in other words, all of us - work together and, with a few technological fixes, succeed in creating a world without end.<br><br><b>"Masterful and unforgettable... A testament to the power of the graphic novel" - Marjane Satrapi, author of <i>Persepolis</i></b><br><br><b>"READ. THIS. BOOK.</b>"<b>- Eliza Griswold, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist</b><br><br>Over 1 million copies sold since publication, <i>The Guardian</i>, October 2024</p>
