La Corrente del Golfo, elemento chiave del clima europeo, capace di riscaldare terre altrimenti coperte dai ghiacci e di portare pioggia dal Portogallo fino alla Russia, si sta progressivamente indebolendo.

Come stanno reagendo le comunità, le città, gli ecosistemi a questa trasformazione che mette a rischio la loro stessa sopravvivenza?

Globally, Black people are among the most affected by the climate crisis, despite contributing very little to it. For a long time, the crisis was portrayed as yet another injustice for Black people to care about, on top of the day-to-day oppression they face. In Black Climates, Selina Nwulu reframes the crisis to encompass our disconnection from each other and the world around us. She argues that the root of climate change lies in historical colonial violence and ongoing exploitation, making it inherently racist.

By favoring mostly plant-based foods, we can actually save the world – and live longer, healthier lives. A shift to mostly plant-based diets and new food technologies could solve our most important and pressing global problems. Issues like climate change, hunger, freshwater shortages, the Sixth Extinction, antibiotic resistance, and the threat of new pandemics might just melt away with the new food revolution. According to official estimates, meat and other animal-based products account for around 20% of human-generated greenhouse gas emissions.

Women are disproportionately impacted by climate change. In some cases, women make up almost 90 percent of casualties during dangerous climate events, and the majority of those displaced in the aftermath are women. Despite this disparity, women are underrepresented at every level of decision-making about the future of our planet. In Intertwined, writer and wildlife biologist Rebecca Kormos elevates the voices of women working to prevent the climate crisis, weaving together their stories to make a powerful case for why women are essential to changing our current trajectory.
