The Worldwide Collaborative Book Project has reached a highly satisfying conclusion with the release this week of Passage to Redemption on Kindle.
This means that for a few dollars or pounds, you can obtain a copy of our ground breaking environmental novel. The story combines a thriller spanning not just centuries, but thousands of years, with a powerful environmental message.
"What would we do if everyone on the planet knew without any doubt that they had to act now to avoid the demise of the human race within a few short years?"
Imagine if those who, for whatever reason, doubt the scientific consensus, also became convinced that a catastrophe was imminent. If everyone truly believed there was just five years, surely that would focus their minds. Our political leaders and systems have failed us and there is widespread distrust between nations, so who could possibly take the helm in such a disaster? Whose authority would everyone accept? You may find the conclusion surprising.
Most importantly, what could actually be done in a few short years to reverse the CO2 saturation of our atmosphere?
The key message of this story is that redemption is, just about, possible. Mankind has the inventiveness to bring about such a change. But it will be down to individuals as much as governments to make this happen. Passage to Redemption postulates a myriad of devices and initiatives that a desperate society might use if faced with a total ban on fossil fuels. It postulates the result of a massive change in the world's investment in so-called 'alternative' energy; except it's no longer an alternative, it's all there is.
It is fitting that this book was written collaboratively, as collaboration would be the unavoidable order of the day. It is also fitting that the collaboration was between complete strangers across the entire planet because, like the authors, Christians, Muslims, Jews, non-believers and every creed of religion would have to find a way to work together. Perhaps the central creed of their philosophies would finally manifest itself in a more tolerant society that, like the book, proves mankind can work together for the common good.
For those who prefer to hold the traditional book in their hands, they can buy it now on Amazon.com and soon on Amazon.co.uk.

This book is a must read for all those who have a concern for our planet. What can our so called leaders do at the Mexico Climate Change conference? They can read this book before they sit down and talk about our future. This novel is destined to be the definitive argument on climate change, but with the added twist that it includes a thriller and a storyline that goes back thousnds of years.
If only man would channel his ingenuity and inventiveness into positives and work together what a wonderful world this would be.
A fresh and interesting book concept. Best wishes for its success.
Wonderful collaborative effort among authors worldwide!
