Aftershocks of Extraction explores the history of Groningen gas--a discovery once celebrated as the Netherlands' treasure but now recognized as a source of profound social and ecological damage.
How can the history of Groningen gas help us make sense of the Anthropocene? What can it tell us about the persistence of fossil fuels? And how does fossil fuel extraction impact local communities in the global North? Through personal narratives and research from different disciplines, this pioneering volume answers these questions by examining Groningen's experience with gas extraction, exposing earthquakes, damaged homes, and fractured communities.
The volume innovatively bridges scholarly analysis with firsthand accounts from those affected. By connecting Groningen's local story to global histories of energy, empire, and climate change, it offers essential insights for understanding our Anthropocene moment and imagining more just energy futures--making this required reading for anyone concerned about environmental justice and climate crisis.
