Brief Description:
Marrying the scientific and political sides of the climate crisis issue,
this is a hopeful call to arms about how we can overcome climate change.
Climate change is not only about the exhaustion of the planet, it’s about
the exhaustion of so many of us, our lives, our worlds, even our minds. So,
what is to be done? To answer this question, Ajay Singh Chaudhary brings
together both the science and the politics of climate change. He shows how
a new politics particular to the climate catastrophe demands a bitter
struggle between those attached to the power, wealth, and security of
“business-as-usual” and all of us, those exhausted, in every sense of the
word, by the status quo. Replacing Promethean, romantic, and apocalyptic
fairytales with a new story for every exhausted inhabitant of this
exhausted world, The Exhausted of the Earth outlines the politics and the
power needed to alter the course of our burning world far beyond, far
better than, mere survival.
