Scientific Publishing Storytelling In The Global Age: There Is No Planet B: 1 (World Scientific Series In Multinational Investment And Business)

Product Description Can the fall of globalization be told through true storytelling save humanity from its own extinction? Our planet is constantly damaged by global environmental threats. However, there is no Planet B. To prevent further damage to the earth's ecosystem, we must develop a new ""Globalization Praxis"" that focuses on nine planetary boundaries proposed by Johan Rockström et al., which are climate change; biodiversity loss; biogeochemical phosphorous change; ocean acidification; land use crisis; fresh water crisis; ozone depletion; atmospheric aerosols and chemical pollution by plastics and heavy metals.This book combines new theory and method into a globalization practice that can operate within these boundaries. Storytelling in the Global Age uncovers the myths of globalization, which is useful for professionals and students within this field.
