Seit mehr als einem halben Jahrhundert ist bekannt, dass sich die Menschheit durch Umweltzerstörung und die Aufheizung des Klimas der eigenen Lebensgrundlage beraubt. Zwar häufen sich inzwischen die internationalen Umwelt- und Klimakonferenzen, und auch die Politik und Wirtschaft geben Versprechen ohne Ende ab, geschehen ist aber bislang viel zu wenig. In seinem neuen Hörbuch wendet sich Mojib Latif den Fragen zu, warum die Menschheit weiter wider besseres Wissen an dem Ast sägt, auf dem sie sitzt, warum die Politik versagt und wenige Konzerne profitieren.

Emetto più CO2 se mangio carne bovina biologica, polli da allevamento intensivo, frutti di mare o un trancio di pesce spada?

Eppure, nonostante questa consapevolezza, spesso ci sentiamo impotenti di fronte ai mille problemi che la crisi ambientale ci pone di fronte quotidianamente.

Warum wir zynische Geldmacher, egomane Politiker und deren Lügen bekämpfen müssen. Die Welt steckt in der Endphase eines Kulturkampfs: Gier gegen Gerechtigkeit, Zerstörung gegen Nachhaltigkeit, Zynismus gegen Empathie.

Yet behind these anxieties lies an older, much deeper fear about the power that climate exerts over us.
