Falter by Bill McKibben
Has the Human Game Begun to Play Itself Out?
A clear-eyed warning about how the convergence of climate change, extreme inequality, and powerful new technologies—such as artificial intelligence and genetic engineering—threatens the continuity of human civilization. It traces these dangers to market fundamentalism and tech utopianism that prioritize profit and disruption over shared well-being, and argues for rapid decarbonization, revitalized democracy, community-scale solutions, and a renewed moral imagination to preserve a humane, livable future.
