Across the Global North, the question of how we should respond to the climate crisis has been answered: with a shift to renewables, electric cars, carbon trading and hydrogen. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e But beneath the sustainability branding, these climate 'solutions' are leading to new environmental injustices and green colonialism. The green growth and clean energy plans of the Global North require the large-scale extraction of strategic minerals from the Global South. The geopolitics of transition imply sacrificing not only territories, but truly sustainable ways of inhabiting this world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This book provides a platform for the voices that have been conspicuously absent in debates around energy and climate. Drawing on case studies from across the Global South, the authors offer critiques of green colonialism in its material, political and symbolic dimensions, discuss the entanglements that connect the transitions of different world regions, and explore alternative pathways toward a liveable and just future for all. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMiriam Lang\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Environment and Sustainability at the Universidad Andina Simón Bolívar, Ecuador. \u003cb\u003eMary Ann Manahan\u003c\/b\u003e is a doctoral assistant in the Department of Conflict and Development Studies at Ghent University, Belgium. \u003cb\u003eBreno Bringel\u003c\/b\u003e is a Professor of Sociology at the State University of Rio de Janeiro and a Senior Fellow at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Miriam Lang is an activist academic who works as Professor of Environment and Sustainability at the Universidad Andina Simón Bolívar, Ecuador.
