Description

Climate change is the defining issue of our time. We know beyond reasonable doubt what the science now tells us. But summoning up a greater sense of urgency, courage and shared endeavour than humankind has ever seen before is crucial if we are to address this challenge.

In "Hope in Hell", Jonathon Porritt confronts the dilemma head on, exploring reasons to be hopeful: new technology, the power of innovation, the mobilisation of young people, and a sense of intergenerational solidarity. He believes we still have time to do what needs to be done, but only if we move now - and move together.

This ultimately upbeat book offers a powerful call to action, urging us to use this moment to promote economic recovery in a way that simultaneously addresses the Climate Emergency.
