A rousing and radical investigation into the climate crisis, its
causes, and how to fight for the most vulnerable people affected by
it, This Book Will Save the Planet is a vibrantly illustrated
study of one of humanity's most significant threats.
With this third
title in the NYT #1 best-selling Empower the Future series,
you’ll gain a deeper understanding of climate change and climate
justice.
Our planet is in
crisis. The ice caps are melting, sea levels are rising, wildfires
are raging… and those most affected by global warming are
marginalised communities across the globe.
But all is not lost
– there’s still time for each and every one of us to make a
difference.
Through the lens of
intersectionality, author Dany Sigwalt lays out the framework for how
we can come together to fight climate change, and how we can work to
put people over profit. The planet is not protected if all its
inhabitants are not; the people are not protected if the planet they
inhabit is not.
In this book, you
will:
- Discover the
core principles of climate justice
- Learn how
solidarity, community and mutual aid can change the world
- Find out how to
use your privilege to stand-up for other people
At the end of each
chapter, there are activities and calls to action to get you thinking
and to grow your knowledge. All you need is a pen and a piece of
paper.
With kaleidoscopic
and vibrant illustrations by artist Aurélia Durand, this book is
written for everyone who lives on planet Earth. By the end, you’ll
have the tools you need to go out and make a difference.
