HTML:Provocative and illuminating essays from women at the forefront of the climate movement who are harnessing truth, courage, and solutions to lead humanity forward.
There is a renaissance blooming in the climate movement: leadership that is more characteristically feminine and more faithfully feminist, rooted in compassion, connection, creativity, and collaboration. While it’s clear that women and girls are vital voices and agents of change for this planet, they are too often missing from the proverbial table. More than a problem of bias, it’s a dynamic that sets us up for failure. To change everything, we need everyone.
All We Can Save illuminates the expertise and insights of dozens of diverse women leading on climate in the United States—scientists, journalists, farmers, lawyers, teachers, activists, innovators, wonks, and designers, across generations, geographies, and race—and aims to advance a more representative, nuanced, and solution-oriented public conversation on the climate crisis. These women offer a spectrum of ideas and insights for how we can rapidly, radically reshape society.
This book is both a balm and a guide for knowing and holding what has been done to the world, while bolstering our resolve never to give up on one another or our collective future. We must summon truth, courage, and solutions to turn away from the brink and toward life-giving possibility. Curated by two climate leaders, the book is a collection and celebration of visionaries who are leading us on a path toward all we can save. This audiobook includes a PDF of climate resources and references. With essays and poems by: Emily Atkin • Xiye Bastida • Ellen Bass • Colette Pichon Battle • Jainey K. Bavishi • Janine Benyus • adrienne maree brown • Régine Clément • Abigail Dillen • Camille T.

Best book I have read on solutions for climate change. Essays and poems by 60 women authors. I didn't necessarily agree with every one of the essays, but they are all thought provoking, and I did agree with the great majority of them. ( )
I ran out of steam on this one. No complaints in general about the book; it's just my own particular problem with anthologies, which often feel too jumpy to hold my attention.
This book is packed with essays that vary widely in scope. Many are eye-opening. Many are depressing. A few are encouraging. Overall I enjoyed this book, though it was tough to get through at times. Fortunately each essay was easily read in a single sitting. ( )
I’ve been on board with the science since the 90s. I thought this book might be the one to spur me to action but I was unable to endure the bludgeoning until the end. ( )
This collection of essays, most written by women of color, address the crisis of climate change and what we can do about it. Interspersed are some poems and quotes, and at the beginning of each thematic section, art. The essays showcase a wide variety of experiences and responses to climate change, and some are more optimistic than others, but all have one thing on common: a call to climate activism, getting organized, and making changes at the policy, not just the personal, level.
For doing what it sets out to do and doing it masterfully, the book deserves 5 stars. If the description interests you, I highly recommend it. For me, though, it was a "have-to" read for book club, and I rushed through it when I should've started it early to let myself read more slowly and absorb everything. I didn't enjoy the experience of reading it, with both the book-club deadline and the heaviness of the topic. So, my personal reading reaction is only 3 stars. ( )
