À propos de ce contenu audio
'A powerful, passionate and utterly convincing book.' - LORD PETER RICKETTS
From the water-stressed mountains of the Arabian Peninsula to the wildfires raging through America's most populated regions, the climate crisis is already affecting the lives of millions. As natural disasters and increased scarcity shake the established world order to its core, Elemental reveals an alternative future is still possible.
Within this century, the new era of extreme weather will threaten India's ability to grow rice, prevent southern Europe's farms from providing the continent with fresh produce, and make building in Saudi Arabia near impossible. While such unprecedented challenges inevitably drive conflict, they will also encourage innovation, upending economies and global power structures to create opportunities for new players and pioneering ways of living.
In this groundbreaking study, Arthur Snell visits rapidly changing societies to show how we can live on a warming planet. He presents a vision in which Africa powers Europe with solar energy, where autocratic oil states are no more, and new shipping routes across the melting Arctic bring Asia, Europe and North America closer than ever before. In Russia, huge areas of highly fertile land will be exposed by the melting ice for whoever can seize it, while China's stranglehold on rare minerals looks set to make it the world's leading superpower.
Through four sections - Earth, Air, Fire and Water - Elemental blends reportage with analysis and interviews with key experts, policymakers and politicians, to reveal the turbulent future we face - and the choices we need to make to avert disaster.©2026 Arthur Snell

An extraordinary mastery of geopolitics, combining years on the ground in the most challenging places, a raw instinct for politics and a deep ethical concern for the world in the face of climate catastrophe. A masterpiece. (Rory Stewart)
A powerful, passionate and utterly convincing book, which brings a diplomat's experience to bear on why climate change is driving conflict and disorder in our world and what can still be done to reverse these alarming trends. (Lord Peter Ricketts, former UK National Security Adviser, ex-head of the diplomatic service and UK ambassador to France)
A terrific, highly readable, clear-eyed assessment of the ways a hotter climate will dramatically upend the comforting certainties of our modern world. Essential analysis for policymakers and excellent preparation for all of us who have a stake in the new reality we're making. (Gaia Vince, author of Nomad Century: How to Survive the Climate Upheaval)
