‘I am 29 years old. I was born just before the Kyoto Protocol was signed, and since then global mean temperatures have risen by an estimated 0.2°C per decade . . . in my lifetime I am likely to experience a world that is 2°C warmer, perhaps as much as 4°C, and has more droughts, fires and floods.’ Sylvia Nissen Climate crisis is upon us. By choice or necessity, New Zealand will transition to a low-emissions future. But can this revolution be careful? Can it be attentive to the disruptions it inevitably creates? Or will carefulness simply delay and dilute the changes that future people require of us? This timely collection brings together eleven authors to explore the politics and practicalities of the low-emissions transition, touching on issues of justice, tikanga, trade-offs, finance, futurism, adaptation, and more.

Towards a Low-Emissions Future

A Careful Revolution

Solomon Fuller's looking forward to a quiet weekend as he wraps up a late Friday night at MI6. However a deadly and unexpected situation in Northern Ireland changes those plans forever. He finds himself thrown into a violent jigsaw of paramilitaries, drug cartels and freelance killers. He must try and piece the puzzle together as Belfast once again re-ignites into a brutal and deadly storm. Nobody has any explanation for what's happening after only a few months since the IRA's historic announcement, but the one certainty is that a lot of people are dying and Fuller has to stop it before his family joins the casualty list. In a deadly race through the streets of Belfast, Fuller heads towards a startling and unpredictable end, made even more dangerous by the fact that his enemies always seem to be one step ahead of him. This will be a weekend that Belfast never forgets.
