"The book starts from the idea that, in order to obtain a clear vision and to present documented, relevant, sustainable and accurate responses to climate change, it will be necessary to take a cultural perspective and re-evaluate humanity's priorities by means of a circular approach, with a clear direction of action at individual, sectorial, national and global levels. ? The book persuasively demonstrates that it is essential for our future to experiment with social and economic restructuring, to better combat global warming."
