Face au dérèglement climatique, "il n’y a pas de plan B, car il n’y a pas de planète B". Cette formule de l’ancien secrétaire général des Nations unies, Ban Ki-moon, n’a rien perdu de son actualité. Toujours valable pour le climat, elle renvoie plus largement aux "limites planétaires" définies par de nombreux chercheurs – ces seuils que l’humanité ne peut dépasser sans compromettre ses propres conditions de vie et celles des autres espèces : érosion de la biodiversité, changements d’usages des sols, acidification des océans, hausse des aérosols dans l’atmosphère, etc. A travers la présentation d’une soixantaine de décryptages, de reportages, d’enquêtes, de portraits ou d’entretiens récents publiés dans "Le Monde", Simon Roger et Gaëlle Dupont, qui dirigent le service Planète, proposent un état des lieux. Ils nous livrent à la fois les meilleures clés de compréhension des déséquilibres en cours mais aussi des "solutions pour la planète" et des exemples d’engagements citoyens, qui confirment l’existence d’une prise de conscience, d’une volonté d’inverser la tendance, d’un espoir. Car c’est bien à nous de réparer la planète, et plus encore face à la crise sanitaire, économique, sociétale, provoquée par l’épidémie due au coronavirus. C’est à nous -- sociétés civiles, Etats, entreprises – d’activer sans plus tarder le plan A, d’agir et de revoir nos modes de production et de consommation, nos relations avec la nature et notre rapport à l’autre.

In The Future We Choose, Christiana Figueres and Tom Rivett-Carnac—who led negotiations for the United Nations during the historic Paris Agreement of 2015—have written a cautionary but optimistic book about the world’s changing climate and the fate of humanity.The authors outline two possible scenarios for our planet. In one, they describe what life on Earth will be like by 2050 if we fail to meet the Paris Agreement’s climate targets. In the other, they lay out what it will be like to live in a regenerative world that has net-zero emissions. They argue for confronting the climate crisis head-on, with determination and optimism. The Future We Choose presents our options and tells us what governments, corporations, and each of us can, and must, do to fend off disaster.

"This book examines the interconnection between human agency, 'natural' disasters and climate change across ten different countries in Asia Pacific. The Asia-Pacific region accounts for the majority of global disaster-related displacement, but the experience of the millions of individuals displaced differs according to gender, age, ethnicity, (dis)ability, caste and so forth, and is dependent on the legal, administrative, social and economic structures and processes in place to support them. This book adopts a human rights approach, investigating the role of law and policy in preventing displacement, protecting people who are displaced, and engendering durable solutions across cases drawn from Thailand, Cambodia, Myanmar, Indonesia, the Philippines, China, Nepal, Bangladesh, Vanuatu and the Solomon Islands. The specific cases in the book also reflects critically on the term 'displacement', and the wider normative framework within which this phenomenon is conceptualised and addressed. The book will be of interest to researchers and practitioners working at the intersection of development, disaster risk management and climate change adaptation"--Provided by publisher.

The Impacts of Climate Change: A Comprehensive Study of Physical, Biophysical, Social and Political Issues presents the very real issues associated with climate change and global warming and how it affects the planet and everyone on it. From a physical perspective, the book covers such topics as population pressures, food issues, rising sea-levels and coastline degradation, and health. It then goes on to present social impacts, such as humanitarian issues, ethics, adaptation, urban issues, local action, and socio-economic issues. Finally, it addresses the political impacts, such as justice issues and politics of climate change in different locations. By offering this holistic review of the latest impacts of climate change, the book helps researchers to better understand what needs to be done in order to move toward renewable energy, change societal habits, and move toward sustainable development.
