What If We Get It Right by Ayana Elizabeth Johnson

Do you like reading about visions of climate futures that are evidence-based and inspired by work that people are doing in the real world today? 

What If We Get It Right: Visions of Climate Futures by Ayana Elizabeth Johnson is a book full of informative and inspiring interviews with people who are working on innovative climate solutions. It’s a great combination of compelling personal stories and detailed exploration of many concrete actions we can take in response to the climate crisis.

If this sounds like your kind of book, be sure to read my review over at Climate Change Books. And please share it with anyone you know who cares about climate solutions and climate justice.

Book Review: How To Blow Up A Pipeline

In honor of the release of the film How to Blow Up a Pipeline, I decided to review the nonfiction book of the same name that inspired the film.

I’m glad that I did.

Despite its provocative title, How to Blow Up a Pipeline by Andreas Malm isn’t a how-to manual for aspiring saboteurs. It’s a thought-provoking exploration of the history, ethicality, and strategic considerations of a broad range of violent and nonviolent tactics of resistance to systems of oppression, particularly the fossil fuel industry.
