This Changes Everything is about to upend the debate about the stormy era already upon us. The Shock Doctrine changed the way we think about austerity. Once a decade, Naomi Klein writes a book that redefines its era. It's about changing the world - before the world changes so drastically that no one is safe. Confronting it is no longer about changing the light bulbs. Climate change, Klein argues, is a civilizational wake-up call, a powerful message delivered in the language of fires, floods, storms, and droughts. In fact, all around the world, the fight back for the next economy is already succeeding in ways both surprising and inspiring. You have also been told that humanity is too greedy and selfish to rise to this challenge.

You have been told it's impossible to get off fossil fuels when in fact we know exactly how to do it - it just requires breaking every rule in the 'free-market' playbook: reining in corporate power, rebuilding local economies and reclaiming our democracies. You have been told the market will save us, when in fact the addiction to profit and growth is digging us in deeper every day. Klein exposes the myths that are clouding the climate debate.

Naomi Klein, author of the #1 international bestsellers, The Shock Doctrine and No Logo, returns with This Changes Everything, a must-read on how the climate crisis needs to spur transformational political change Forget everything you think you know about global warming.
