The Long Heat
Climate Politics When It’s Too Late
Book •
In 'The Long Heat', Carton and Malm delve into the options available when climate mitigation has failed, exploring adaptation, carbon dioxide removals, and geoengineering.
The book questions whether these technologies represent genuine solutions or merely perpetuate the logic that caused the crisis.
It examines the politics surrounding these approaches, particularly the concept of 'negative magic' in carbon dioxide removal.
The authors discuss the challenges of implementing these technologies in a way that addresses the root causes of climate change.
They also highlight the potential for these solutions to be used to avoid difficult conversations about reducing fossil fuel use.
