The Future We Choose

Christiana, Figueres

£9.99

The Paris Agreement was a landmark for humanity. In this timely and important book, two of the principle creators of that agreement show us why and how we can now realise its’ promise. Written by former UN Secretary for Climate Christiana Figures and Tom Rivett-Carnac, this call to arms outlines two scenarios for our future: how life on Earth will be by 2050 if we fail to meet the Paris Agreement climate targets; or how it will look and feel to live in a carbon neutral, regenerative world. Each of us must confront the crisis head on, with determination and optimism. Practical and empowering, ‘The Future We Choose’ features ten things we can do today to make a difference.
