It's much worse than you think. Global warming is already changing our world beyond recognition, and its consequences will only become more serious and terrible. Floods, fires, famine and wars are only a small part of what awaits us even according to optimistic forecasts. Journalist David Wallace-Wells conducted extensive research and found out exactly how warming will affect our lives in the near (and distant) future. How many degrees will the planet warm up over the next ten years? Will St. Petersburg and other European cities go under water? Can technology save humanity? The Uninhabitable Earth is a New York Times bestseller and book of the year by The New Yorker, The Economist, Time, GQ and many other publications. After reading it, there is no doubt: the world is on the verge of a catastrophe, which humanity stubbornly refuses to believe in.
