Climate change can no longer be denied, and if our societies are still to function in fifty years, we must learn to live and do business sustainably. To do this, science, politics and citizens must work together. A council of top-class scientists is advising policymakers on this, and so that we can all have our say too, our volume presents the key scientific statements in comic form in a way that is easy to understand for everyone. In view of climate change, species extinction and resource scarcity, it is becoming increasingly clear that we cannot simply maintain our current lifestyle.
Nine scientists fight climate change as comic book heroes.

- Reinhold Leinfelder
- Stefan Rahmstorf
- Dirk Messner
- Jürgen Schmid
- Nebojsa Nakicenovic
