Mike Berners-Lee – A Climate of Truth: Why We Need It and How To Get It

From the best-selling author of There Is No Planet B and How Bad Are Bananas? 

We have all the technology we need to live better than ever, and yet humanity is still accelerating into a climate and ecological emergency. To understand why – and to give us a chance of doing better – we have to look at the challenge from new angles. A Climate of Truth does this by standing back from the problem to gain perspective, digging deeper to see the root causes, and by joining each element of the challenges we face, learning from failures so far. The need for radically higher standards of honesty – in politics, media and business – emerges as the most critical point of leverage for those seeking change. This urgent, practical book shows how we can maximise our impact and be part of the evolution that humanity so urgently needs.  

MIKE BERNERS-LEE thinks, writes, researches and consults on sustainability and responses to the challenges of the 21st century. He is professor at Lancaster University’s Institute for Social Futures, where he develops practical tools for thinking about the future, and researches the global food system and carbon metrics.
