Publisher's Synopsis
'To weaponise this lush and abundant planet, the cop countries practiced a kind of crude necromancy. They kindled primordial plankton and plant-life that had lain compressed for millennia, to thicken the atmosphere and trap the heat of their star.'
Catastrophic climate change sparked by the fossil fuel industry leaves us no choice: we must decarbonise. To create another world, we need different narratives. With visions spanning from transhuman planet-hopping through post-cyberpunk paranoia to solarpunk ecotopianism, this collection dislocates our present energy regimes to imagine energy transitions and futures in all their complexities. These are stories of phase change.
