Il capitalismo non è più sostenibile. A meno di cambiamenti radicali nel modo in cui la popolazione mondiale vive, produce e gestisce le proprie attività economiche - con i consumi e le emissioni aumentati vertiginosamente - non c'è modo di evitare il peggio. Cosa fare allora? Il messaggio è dirompente: si è perso talmente tanto tempo nello stallo politico del decidere di non decidere, che se oggi volessimo davvero salvarci dal peggio dovremmo affrontare tagli così significativi alle emissioni da mettere in discussione la logica fondamentale della nostra economia: la crescita del PIL come priorità assoluta. "Non abbiamo intrapreso le azioni necessarie a ridurre le emissioni perché questo sarebbe sostanzialmente in conflitto con il capitalismo deregolamentato, ossia con l'ideologia imperante nel periodo in cui cercavamo di trovare una via d'uscita alla crisi. Siamo bloccati perché le azioni che garantirebbero ottime chance di evitare la catastrofe - e di cui beneficerebbe la stragrande maggioranza delle persone - rappresentano una minaccia estrema per quell'élite che tiene le redini della nostra economia, del nostro sistema politico e di molti dei nostri media."La via d'uscita che intravede Naomi Klein non è una Green Economy all'acqua di rose, ma una trasformazione radicale del nostro stile di vita. "La buona notizia è che molti di questi cambiamenti non sono affatto catastrofici; al contrario, sono entusiasmanti."

Work Description
The most important book yet from the author of the international bestseller The Shock Doctrine, a brilliant explanation of why the climate crisis challenges us to abandon the core “free market” ideology of our time, restructure the global economy, and remake our political systems. In short, either we embrace radical change ourselves or radical changes will be visited upon our physical world. The status quo is no longer an option.
In This Changes Everything Naomi Klein argues that climate change isn’t just another issue to be neatly filed between taxes and health care. It’s an alarm that calls us to fix an economic system that is already failing us in many ways. Klein meticulously builds the case for how massively reducing our greenhouse emissions is our best chance to simultaneously reduce gaping inequalities, re-imagine our broken democracies, and rebuild our gutted local economies. She exposes the ideological desperation of the climate-change deniers, the messianic delusions of the would-be geoengineers, and the tragic defeatism of too many mainstream green initiatives. And she demonstrates precisely why the market has not—and cannot—fix the climate crisis but will instead make things worse, with ever more extreme and ecologically damaging extraction methods, accompanied by rampant disaster capitalism.
