The No-Nonsense Guide to Green Politics is one of the few books to analyse the huge impact that climate change will have on politics in future. Written by former speaker of the Green Party in clear, accessible style, it includes b&w maps charts and graphs to illustrate key points.
In the near future there will be no politics but green politics - Climate chaos and pollution, deforestation and consumerism: the crisis facing human civilization is clear enough. But the response of politicians to it has been cowardly and inadequate, while environmental activists have tended to favour single-issue campaigns rather than electoral politics. The No-Nonsense Guide to Green Politics measures the rising tide of eco-activism and awareness and explains why it heralds a new political era worldwide.
