Reviews

'A hugely timely and important book that grapples with advertising's role in enabling climate crimes - and sets out why and how we need to stop the industry's complicity in its tracks, for the sake of a liveable future.' -- Caroline Lucas MP 'A much-needed book whose time has come. The continued advertising of high-carbon products at a time of climate crisis is a form of insanity. The authors are absolutely right to call for a ban, and it can't happen too soon.' -- Bill McGuire, Professor Emeritus of Geophysical & Climate Hazards, UCL
