The year is 2032, and the world is facing extinction due to what humanity has done to its own planet. All life on Earth – from ants to elephants, from tiny blades of grass to mighty oak trees – will cease within a matter of years unless climate change is reversed. John Carter arrives on Earth, in human form, from his own distant planet, which can no longer support life. On a mission to save Earth, he meets Christine Jackson, a reporter for The Times and a high-profile climate change activist. The two fall in love and become inseparable. But a major obstacle looms in the form of Clean Oil Global, an international company determined to prioritize profit over welfare, despite the devastating impact of fossil fuels. However, hope emerges with the rise of The Planet Earth Party, a brand-new political force in the UK that sweeps to power, decimating the tired old order of Conservatives and Labour. The fight to save Planet Earth from extinction is on, and the enemy is us.
