Britain’s leading environmentalist and former Friends of the Earth executive director Tony Juniper joins us to identify the real problem at the heart of the climate crisis: inequality.

From food poverty to wildfires and degraded rivers, mass migration and conflict, the environmental crisis is already here – and it’s set to get much worse. How can people lead good lives without ultimately hastening global collapse, and how might we ask those in developing countries to reject the consumerist culture that has seized richer nations?

The answer lies in fairness. We can’t fight the climate and nature crises without addressing the ever-widening gaps between rich and poor, the powerful and the weak.

Environmentalist Tony Juniper CBE reveals in this wide-ranging and eye-opening book that green technologies won’t work on their own – in order to save and restore the natural systems which sustain society, the economy and civilisation, it is vital that we break the traps set by inequalities. Drawing upon 40 years of research, influence, campaigning and advocacy, Tony Juniper provides answers to how we can achieve real, lasting change.
