| Sumario: | The Stockholm Conference in 1972 directed the world's attention to our endangered habitat. For the Swedish public, however, the problem was already well known. If you were in the habit of reading newspapers, listening to the radio or watching the evening news, you would have come across the global environmental crisis. Five years earlier, in 1967, the situation had been different. At that time it was not at all considered a matter of course that man was in the process of destroying his own planet. In a short time a radical change took place. A green turn. It came to have major repercussions. But how did it actually happen? What made people aware of the environmental crisis? When did it happen? Who or who set the ball rolling? And what significance does this history have for us today? David Larsson Heidenblad's book provides new and important answers to questions that concern us all. *** The Stockholm Conference in 1972 drew the world's attention to the global environmental crisis. To the inhabitants of Sweden, however, this threat to the planet and to humanity was nothing new. Anyone who regularly read newspapers, listened to the radio, or watched the television news would have encountered the issues. Five years earlier, in the summer of 1967, things were very different. At that time, it was not at all self-evident that humans were in the process of destroying their own living environment. Hence, in a short period of time, a radical change took place: an 'environmental turn'. It had major and far-reaching consequences. But what was it that opened people's eyes to the environmental crisis? When did it happen? Who set the ball rolling? And what does this historical process mean for us today? David Larsson Heidenblad's book sheds new light on the emergence of modern environmentalism in Sweden and provides fresh insight to challenges that concern us all. |
