«Falter: Has the Human Game Begun to Play Itself Out?» is Bill McKibben's essay on the climate crisis, hardback (304 pages, English).
In this essay, Bill McKibben argues that civilisation is approaching a tipping point: climate change, the hyper-individualism that dominates politics and the economy, and a technology that standardises human experience threaten the viability of the human project itself. McKibben asks whether the tools and social capital needed to reverse course still exist, and whether we are willing to use them.
Published in 2019, the essay falls within non-fiction and the categories of technology and science, with particular attention to the environment and climate change.
Recommended for readers interested in the climate crisis, the environmental essay, and the social impact of technology.
