The World Is on Fire
The World Is on Fire
How We Broke the Planet
by James Johnson
Dedication
For the ones who lit the match.
And the ones who tried to put it out.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
TO THE SCIENTISTS who told the truth.
To the whistleblowers who weren’t believed.
To the climate refugees who never got a headline.
And to every person who still dares to act while the world tells them it’s already too late, this book was written for the record.
Not the redemption.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
JJ WRITES SHARP, unflinching books about the systems we live in, the history that shaped them, and the people left behind. He doesn’t sugarcoat collapse and he doesn’t pretend it’s inevitable. His work spans global empires, broken economies, conspiracies in plain sight, and the thin line between power and survival.
