Wallace-Wells David
La Terra inabitabile. Una storia del futuro
ril. Conosciamo già molti elementi del surriscaldamento globale: dalle cause, le emissioni di carbonio nell'atmosfera e l'inquinamento dell'aria, agli effetti, le sempre più ricorrenti crisi idriche e i limiti della produttività agricola e alimentare, l'accelerato scioglimento dei ghiacci polari, l'innalzamento del livello dei mari e il moltiplicarsi delle inondazioni lungo le coste, gli incendi disastrosi e i fenomeni temporaleschi estremi, la mutazione di alcune malattie e la loro diffusione, l'instabilità economica, i conflitti e le guerre civili per il controllo delle risorse, le conseguenti e inarrestabili migrazioni. Basta questo per intravedere un futuro spaventoso per il pianeta e per la nostra esistenza. Un futuro di cui il giornalista David Wallace-Wells ci offre una mappa dettagliata attraverso il resoconto dei molteplici «effetti a cascata» del riscaldamento globale e delle sfide che esso comporta. Il «caleidoscopio climatico», infatti, non solo minaccia l'ordine mondiale e promette di accentuare le diseguaglianze, ma mette in discussione il nostro rapporto con la natura, il significato della tecnologia e il senso stesso del progresso umano. Lo scenario prefigurato dagli studi disponibili è sconfortante, difficile da raccontare nella sua complessità. E potrebbe anche essere peggiore, dato che sono molte le cose che ancora non sappiamo. Soprattutto rimane incerto come, e quanto rapidamente, gli esseri umani reagiranno di fronte al disastro. Alla luce di ciò, Wallace-Wells ci costringe ad affrontare le nostre responsabilità tracciando una rassegna impietosa delle illusioni e degli inganni che, soprattutto in Occidente, ci allontanano da un effettivo impegno: dalla cautela dei climatologi all'allarmismo dei media, dall'indifferenza dei politici ai proclami apocalittici dei profeti della catastrofe, dal desiderio di purificazione della 'wellness' alle fantasie della «post-umanità» dei guru della tecnologia, dall'eco-fascismo alla fede nei miracoli della geoingegneria. Scritto da «un americano come tanti», che ama gli hamburger ed è felice di usare gli oggetti usciti dalla catena di produzione industriale, "La Terra inabitabile" è un libro terrificante, ma anche un appassionato invito all'azione. Perché, per quanto avvelenato, il nostro pianeta è destinato a sopravvivere. L'umanità, invece, ha solo una possibilità per immaginare un insieme di soluzioni tecnologiche, politiche e comportamentali che le permettano di preservare il proprio futuro. Nonostante tutto, possiamo ancora farcela.

Walter Laura
Zuppa fatata, zuppa stregata
ill., br. Ogni anno, il giorno del solstizio d'inverno, sia le fate guidate da Fata Stupenda, che le streghe comandate dalla terribile Arcigna, devono preparare una speciale zuppa a base di ortaggi e spezie: quella delle fate ha un gusto delicato e vellutato, quella delle streghe è forte e pepata.Ma entrambe le zuppe hanno uno scopo: rinnovare i poteri magici. Fate e streghe, però, quest'anno si sono accorte che gli ingredienti raccolti per le zuppe non sono sani, perché provengono da coltivazioni che usano prodotti chimici. Urge allora trovare un rimedio. Ovvero raccogliere le verdure nella fattoria biologica di Gigi Salvasemi, che al posto dei pesticidi usa concimi organici. Ma perché la ricetta funzioni c'è bisogno del tocco finale: la Pura Mano di un bambino deve gettare nella zuppa dei chicchi di melagrana. E si dà il caso che Gigi Salvasemi abbia due figli, Marta e Javier. Le streghe non ci stanno a condividere gli ingredienti con le fate. E scatenano così una guerra a base di incantesimi, a cui le fate rispondono colpo su colpo. Così però si rischia che il 21 dicembre passi senza la necessaria zuppa d'inverno. Le fate, allora, propongono alle streghe un accordo, che a malincuore Arcigna accetta. Perché le streghe più potenti e cattive, per essere tali, hanno bisogno delle fate più buone.
