Jakarta Is Sinking, the Sea Is Rising - Why Were the Warnings Ignored? Scientists warned of the consequences of industrialization as early as the 19th century. Yet political and economic interests repeatedly delayed effective climate action. Through compelling historical testimony, this account traces decades of missed warnings and asks when the consequences of inaction will finally become impossible to ignore.
An account of the last two centuries of the Anthropocene, the Age of Man. How human beings have progressed so much in such a short time through war and the selfish interests of a few, belligerent politicians and captains of industry, damaging the welfare of the majority of mankind, impoverishing the weakest, greedily devouring the limited resources of the Earth.
