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.
 
Klein argues that the changes to our relationship with nature and one another that are required to respond to the climate crisis humanely should not be viewed as grim penance, but rather as a kind of gift--a catalyst to transform broken economic and cultural priorities and to heal long-festering historical wounds. And she documents the inspiring movements that have already begun this process: communities that are not just refusing to be sites of further fossil fuel extraction but are building the next, regeneration-based economies right now.
 
Can we pull off these changes in time? Nothing is certain. Nothing except that climate change changes everything. And for a very brief time, the nature of that change is still up to us.



人類即將面臨史上最嚴酷的災難劇變……
關於全球暖化與極端氣候
改變的重點不是碳排,而是資本主義!

為什麼地球以暴衝的速度持續暖化?
為什麼環保運動努力數十年卻成效有限?
為什麼換裝節能電器卻無法減緩暖化速度?
為什麼再生能源始終無法替代化石燃料?
氣候危機如何帶給我們更公平的經濟制度和更美好的生活?
──所有關於氣候危機的解答,都在這本書中!

歷史來敲你的門了,你要開門嗎?
娜歐蜜.克萊恩繼剖析自由市場遊戲規則的《震撼主義》後,著眼於攸關人類命運的危機──氣候變遷。她以深入的追蹤調查、實際的參與經驗和具前瞻性的觀點,加以感性筆法融合理性論述,告訴我們無止盡追求成長的自由市場經濟,如何讓人類陷入氣候危機。

克萊恩將環境議題的格局拉高,提醒我們以全球為範圍,用高於國家政策的視野,徹底改良已然失靈的全球經濟體系,不僅防止溫室效應擴散,也是改善全球貧富不均的根本解決之道。因此本書不僅談論環保,更關乎社會層面的根本變革。

揭穿氣候爭議的迷思與盲點
關於全球暖化我們知道的很多,但也知道的太少。至今仍有一群人為了政治與商業利益,堅稱全球暖化不存在;還有一群人妄想市場經濟能主宰地球命運,癡望綠色科技能扭轉暖化的未來;而我們賴以期待的環保團體,很可能正和黑心財團聯手榨乾地球資源。地球持續暖化,逼我們不得不重新思考現有的制度,追根究底危機的源頭並加以根除。

書中詳盡揭露當今過於妥協迂迴的環保中間路線、視災難為賺錢契機的資本主義、短視近利破壞生態的開發手段,以及各種粉飾太平的違心之論,洞穿它們背後的真實目的,解釋為何現有體系對氣候危機束手無策,甚至使之變本加厲?

起身改變世界,在世界改變我們之前
氣候危機是我們的絕佳機會,奮力掙脫習以為常的世界觀,徹底改造將人類帶入災難場域的經濟制度,讓長久以來的歷史傷口得到癒合。克萊恩提出已展開行動且激勵人心的社群案例,他們反抗魯莽的開發計劃,同時打造更公平的經濟體制。唯有集結群眾力量,重建地方經濟,保障基本薪資,才能遏止天災發生,修復崩潰的民主制度,並帶來更公平正義的社會。

這是一場全球公民覺醒的運動,「維持現況」不再是個選項,只有起身行動,才能開始改變。到底是氣候危機為地球帶來天翻地覆的災難?還是我們為破敗的經濟制度帶來天翻地覆的改變?未來正掌握在你我手中。
