Is Ecological Collapse Inevitable ?

In Is Ecological Collapse Inevitable ? , the inaugural book in the PLANÈTE AVENIR series published by Five Minutes, the author paints a precise picture of the crises shaking our planet - global warming, vertiginous biodiversity loss, plastic pollution and deforestation. Drawing on recent studies (2024-2025), she describes unequivocal warning signs : 2024 is the hottest year ever measured, millions of hectares of forest have gone up in smoke and nearly a million species are at risk of extinction.
But the book does more than take stock ; it shows that positive tipping points are already happening. Renewable energies now outperform coal, electric vehicle sales are exploding, and rewilding projects are bringing ecosystems back to life. The author explains how to transform our food, financial and political systems to avoid the worst. She highlights the importance of citizen mobilisation and courageous policy decisions.
This clear, concise text reminds us that collapse is not destiny and offers keys to building a sustainable future. Read it to understand the stakes, discover concrete solutions and join the movement for a liveable planet.
