If everyone—from Emmanuel Macron to Jeff Bezos, and even Coca Cola—is green, why is the environmental crisis growing at an alarmingly rapid rate? The world is already experiencing the impact of climate crisis, but we are not equally responsible for its violent effects. Some of those who claim to be helping the planet are actually making things worse. To avoid being duped by false allies and to create an ecology for the 99%, we must discuss a radical topic: the exit from capitalism. Ecology for the 99% provides inspiration for building grassroots environmental movements through a lively discussion of the most persistent capitalist myths. It presents compelling evidence for why carbon market policies will fail, why a capitalist economy cannot be based on renewable energy sources, and why we should be protesting against overproduction, not overconsumption. Ecology for the 99% is an antidote to apathy and a bulwark against false leads. Time is running out, we can’t afford to take any wrong turns.
The climate crisis is here, and the end of this world—a world built on land theft, resource extraction, and colonial genocide—is on the horizon. In this compelling roadmap to a livable future, Indigenous sovereignty and climate justice go hand in hand. Drawing on their work in Indigenous activism, the labour movement, youth climate campaigns, community-engaged scholarship, and independent journalism, the six authors challenge toothless proposals and false solutions to show that a just transition from fossil fuels cannot succeed without the dismantling of settler capitalism in Canada. Together, they envision a near future where oil and gas stay in the ground; where a caring economy provides social supports for all; where wealth is redistributed from the bloated billionaire class; and where stolen land is rightfully reclaimed under the jurisdiction and sovereignty of Indigenous peoples. Packed with clear-eyed analysis of both short- and long-term strategies for radical social change, The End of This World promises that the next world is within reach and worth fighting for.

Coming in October, 2022. Climate change is already affecting millions of people. Governments talk about taking action to limit global heating to 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, but the greenhouse gas emissions allowed by their policies have the Earth on track to heating far more than that by the end of the century - a level of heating that will have truly disastrous consequences. Visionary plans for how to slash emissions and make society better at the same time abound, including various Green New Deals. But how can we make the changes that are so urgently needed? Future on Fire argues that a just transition from fossil fuels and other drivers of climate change will not be del...
Os sem-teto de Montreal estão morrendo nas mãos de 'Allan', um assassino em série determinado a livrar a cidade dos moradores de rua... Enquanto o assassino provoca a polícia com um aumento na contagem de corpos, o capitão Dave McCall chama os serviços de Jonathan Addley e Chris Barry.

Mas os esforços combinados da lei e do dinheiro serão suficientes para impedir O Assassino de Sem-Teto?
politique québécoise un mouvement étudiant combatif, déterminé et uni. Or le Printemps érable, loin d’être un phénomène de génération spontanée, est le fruit d’une longue histoire dont les racines plongent jusqu’aux premiers jours de la Révolution tranquille. Au croisement des influences des partis politiques, des groupes révolutionnaires et des syndicats, depuis plus d’un demi-siècle, le milieu étudiant a su à la fois faire entendre ses revendications, et développer ses propres stratégies et pratiques. Cet ouvrage raconte les multiples élans et conflits qui ont marqué le mouvement: les bras de fer engagés avec les autorités, mais aussi les rapports de force et tensions entre et au sein des associations nationales. Puisant dans de nombreuses archives et nourri d’une vingtaine d’entrevues, l’auteur nous fait découvrir l’étoffe de l’un des plus redoutables mouvements sociaux d’Amérique du Nord.
