Industrial Scars : The Hidden Costs of Consumption Hardback

Hardback

Pre-Order

Description

Our ever-increasing demand for energy, rapidly changing eating habits and rampant consumerism are rapidly leading to the degradation of our planet.

Industrial Scars reveals unseen views of the effects of such production on our environment, exposing the secrets from oil drilling, hydro-fracking and coal-ash waste, to large scale agricultural production and abandoned mining operations.

Each of Fair’s striking images, presented here in exquisite detail, are accompanied by detailed explanations.

Award-winning science writer Lewis Smith writes about each of the processes in captivating detail, describing the development of each industry through time and across the world.

The foreword is written by a leading environmentalist Bill McKibben of 350.org.

The overall message is clear – Fair is committed to reveal the evidence of the devastating costs of our choices on our planet.

It is up to us to accept a consumer responsibility and environmental awareness, and to change our habits if we want to ensure a better world for future generations to enjoy.
