"Sapinski, Buck, Malm, and their trans-Atlantic team of realists, Marxists, and discourse theorists amplify how twenty-first-century citizens live under terms set by corporations, states, big science, and media in a post-truth era. Taking up the mystifications of solar geo-engineering, their essays look not so much at global ecological impacts, but ask, What are the chances for democratic climate governance?"
