Looking Ahead: eBook 6 — The Planet and the Machine

The arguments over wealth and healthcare are arguments about the present — who gets what now, who suffers now, who pays now. But two forces are reshaping the ground beneath those arguments faster than politics can follow. Climate change is rewriting the physical terms of human civilization. Artificial intelligence and Big Tech are rewriting the informational ones. In the next volume, The Planet and the Machine: Climate and Digital Life, Elena, Marcus, Sarah, James, and Ruth turn to face the future — and discover that the question of who controls tomorrow may be even more divisive than the question of who profits today.

Avoiding Civil War II is an eight-volume series. This is Book 5: Who Pays, Who Profits.
