Description

Il mondo in cui viviamo consuma 370 milioni di tonnellate di plastica l’anno, 150 milioni di ammoniaca, 1,8 miliardi di tonnellate di acciaio e 4,5 miliardi di tonnellate di cemento. Il lavoro ormai decennale di Vaclav Smil si fonda su una certezza incrollabile: per affrontare qualsiasi problema in maniera efficiente è necessario conoscere i fatti e partire dai dati. Accompagnati nell’esplorazione di principî e macrosistemi ci scopriremo di volta in volta sorpresi, indignati, fiduciosi. E, a lettura ultimata, certamente più informati e consapevoli.
