Few of us have yet asked, "What happens after global warming?" Drawing upon the latest, groundbreaking works of a handful of climate visionaries, Deep Future helps us look beyond 2100 a.d. to the next hundred millennia of life on Earth.
It will be the choices we make in this century that will affect that future more than those of any previous generation.
"Deep Future is a richly informative and deeply persuasive book - one that will be relevant for generations." - Elizabeth Kolbert
“Our short moment on earth is changing the planet essentially forever, at least in human terms - which means that this is both a scientifically and ethically crucial book." - Bill McKibben
