Description
The air we breathe is no longer a background certainty. From wildfire smoke drifting across continents to heat-driven pollution that turns ordinary days into health risks, the atmosphere has become a defining force of modern life. The Battle for Air examines how climate change, inequality, infrastructure, and policy collide in the most intimate human experience: breathing.Moving beyond science alone, this book treats air as a social, economic, and ethical system. It traces how cities are designed to breathe, why air scarcity falls unevenly across communities, how markets and migration respond to atmospheric stress, and how innovation emerges when clean air can no longer be taken for granted. Through history, contemporary case studies, and forward-looking analysis, The Battle for Air reveals the atmosphere as a mirror of collective choices-and a test of whether societies can protect what sustains everyone.Air has always been shared. Its future is not guaranteed. This book asks what it will take to keep it breathable.
