BURNING by Naomi Klein is read by Rebecca Lowman with an introduction go through by the writer.

For more than two decades, Naomi Klein has been the foremost chronicler from the economic war waged on both people and globe – and the champion of the sweeping environmental plan with justice at its center. Her books possess defined our period. On Fire gathers for the first time more than a decade of her impassioned composing from your frontline of weather modification, and pairs it with new material for the staggeringly high stakes of what we choose to do next.

These essays, reviews and lectures present Klein at her most prophetic and philosophical, investigating the weather crisis not merely like a profound political problem but also as a religious and imaginative one. Delving into topics ranging from the clash between ecological period and our culture of “perpetual now,” to rising white supremacy and fortressed edges as a kind of “environment barbarism,” that is a rousing call to action for a world in the brink.
