#1 New York Times and internationally bestselling author Naomi Klein makes the case for a Green New Deal in this ';keenly argued, well-researched, and impassioned' manifesto (The Washington Post).An instant bestseller,
On Fire shows Klein at her most prophetic and philosophical, investigating the climate crisis not only as a profound political challenge but also as a spiritual and imaginative one.
Delving into topics ranging from the clash between ecological time and our culture of ';perpetual now,' to the soaring history of humans changing and evolving rapidly in the face of grave threats, to rising white supremacy and fortressed borders as a form of ';climate barbarism,' this is a rousing call to action for a planet on the brink.
An expansive, far-ranging exploration that sees the battle for a greener world as indistinguishable from the fight for our lives,
On Fire captures the burning urgency of the climate crisis, as well as the fiery energy of a rising political movement demanding a catalytic Green New Deal.
';Naomi Klein's work has always moved and guided me.
She is the great chronicler of our age of climate emergency, an inspirer of generations.' Greta Thunberg, climate activist
