Climate & Capitalism will be less active than usual until mid-May, because I’m on the road again.
I’m looking forward to meeting many Climate & Capitalism readers during my visit to Australia, organized by Socialist Alliance and Green Left Weekly. I’ll be speaking in seven cities between April 30 and May 11, and launching my new book, Facing the Anthropocene, at the Socialism for the 21st Century conference in Sydney, May 13-15. I’m also looking forward to many informal discussions over cold drinks, and to some time off to see kangaroos and such.
If you are in Australia, please try to attend.
(If you can’t be in Sydney on May 13 … Monthly Review Press is now accepting advance orders for Facing the Anthropocene, and I have it on good authority that early buyers will receive it well in advance of the official publication date.)
