Summary:

"Academic and activist Nicholas Beuret exposes the bleak realities of the transition to a carbon-neutral economy. Greening the economy has become a one-sided war, as governments and businesses squeeze the living standards of ordinary people while failing to achieve their declared climate goals. The public needs to seize control of the transition in order to reshape it to equitable ends. With hard data at his fingers and an incisive take on contemporary politics, Beuret shows how this can be done"-- provided by publisher.
