Overshoot

Verso Books · 2026 · 416 pages

As the planet warms, bold technological fixes to reverse climate change are gaining traction, promising to cool the Earth or scrub the air clean. But are these "overshoot" solutions truly viable, or do they merely offer a dangerous distraction from the immediate need to cut emissions? This urgent analysis dissects the risks and potential of geoengineering and carbon removal, arguing that our focus must remain on present-day action, not future technological salvation. For readers who want to understand the critical debates surrounding our climate future.
