A word of mouth sensation… book whose alternative title might be:
Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Climate Change But Were
Too Afraid to Ask … Jancovici [provides] the facts and clever
concepts, and Blain the angst, the jokes and the occasional
superhero … This is vital reading: every maison should have one
*Observer*
World Without End is a testament to the power of the graphic novel
and a singular work of environmental activism. Through its
whip-smart designs, accessible research, and fearless commentary,
this book invites readers of all backgrounds to join the climate
change conversation-and demands that they feel anything but
ambivalence. Masterful and unforgettable
*Marjane Satrapi, author of Persepolis*
Can a graphic novel save the planet? Perhaps. World Without End is
sharp, funny, and heart-stoppingly honest
*Elizabeth Kolbert, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Sixth
Extinction*
When it comes to the climate crisis, most of us know what we think,
but we also understand that we don't know enough. In World Without
End, Jancovici pulls no punches about how dire things have become,
but Blain also keeps humor ever present, and it is welcome. This
book, which covers so much material, is extremely readable and
enjoyable, and a testament to the talent of the author and artist
behind it. They know that a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go
down, and that while we all want to know more about the current
state of things, we need a place to start. For many people, this
will be it
*Kate Beaton, New York Times bestselling author of Ducks: Two Years
in the Oil Sands*

READ. THIS. BOOK. World Without End is the single most important
book on energy of our time
*Eliza Griswold, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist*
An illuminating and original approach to understanding climate
change
*FT - What to Read in 2024*
A frenetic and funny take on global warming … World Without End is
no ordinary climate science book … When it comes to understanding
the crisis we face, boy, is this a powerful book of cartoons
*New Scientist*
One of the most brilliant summaries of climate issues that has ever
been written... rigorous, realistic and lucid
*Huffington Post (France)*
This perfect duo explain ecological issues without an ounce of
dogmatism... It is a far cry from the ideologues who, by dint of
telling us that everything is screwed up, encourage more inaction
or contrition than action. Jancovici does not pretend that we can
fix everything. He believes that there are solutions to alleviate
the problem, but we must begin by understanding it
