Rumbo al ecocidio

cómo frenar la amenaza a nuestra supervivencia

Esquinas, José

What is failing in an economic system that increases inequalities, that confuses development with growth, that exhausts and privatizes the planet's limited natural resources and that breaks ecological balances and natural cycles, causing climate change? What is failing in an agri-food system that produces 60% more than is necessary to feed humanity and yet where more than 800 million people go hungry, many of whom die, and is also responsible for almost 30% of greenhouse gases and the loss of more than 90% of agricultural biodiversity? What is failing in a society that confuses well-being with consumerism, even at the cost of degrading nature and condemning future generations? Is this consumer society sustainable? Are you happier? This book, with a foreword by Federico Mayor Zaragoza, tries to answer these questions with clear, rigorous language, far from technicalities, and proposes solutions that allow changing the course from Ecocide to Hope.
