2014-10-11 17:23:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
COIN: This week COIN hosted Naomi Klein one of the most influential leftwing voices of our time in Oxford as she launched her new book, This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs the Climate. Having read the book, and listened to her speak, I offer here some personal reflections on why I found the ambition of the book (to radically curb the excesses of extractivist growth-based capitalism) compelling, but the means by which these ends could be achieved disappointingly lacking in inspiration.

ClimateWire: Dead zones, or marine areas with levels of dissolved oxygen so low few things can exist, are becoming increasingly common as climate changes and soaring pollution from human populations combine to put record stress on waterways. This trend is alarming in most places, because marine life provides revenue and food security, but in some instances the changes are natural.
