Publisher's summary

An intersectional primer for saving the planet: place-based perspectives and community-led tools for fighting climate change

For audiences of The Intersectional Environmentalist and All We Can Save

In Climate Resilience, climate justice and resilience strategist Kylie Flanagan invites us to see and act beyond: beyond status-quo solutions, Big Tech promises, and everything we’ve been told about saving the planet.

Centering the voices of Native Rights activists, queer liberation ecologists, youth climate-justice organizers, Latinx wilderness activists, and others on the front lines, Climate Resilience urges us toward a vision of climate care that invests in place-based, community-led projects focused on:

  • Relationship Repair
  • Ecological Restoration
  • Economic Regeneration
  • Collective Care
  • Community Adaptation
  • Cultural Strategy
  • People Power

Each section offers practical blueprints for engaging with different aspects of climate-change action through mutual aid, seed-saving, community-owned energy, community safety plans, and more, and includes a range of ideas for listeners to apply these strategies in their own communities.

Critic reviews

"An essential, inspired chorus of voices echoing the urgency of action in the fight against climate change." —Kirkus Reviews

Climate Resilience is a crucial book that is much needed today as it starts shifting the focus to center frontline communities and leaders addressing climate change and fighting for climate justice.” —Jessica Hernandez, author of Fresh Banana Leaves

“This collection of essays is a profound gift to a world that is deeply in need of healing and restoration. These wise voices tell us important truths about the past, describing with unflinching honesty how the intertwined forces of settler colonialism, white supremacy, and capitalism have gotten us where we are today. Yet they also point to possibilities of a future that could be different—a future where we remember that our own well-being is intimately connected to the well-being of all other living creatures, and act from this remembrance. Readers will be inspired by the stories of the people already planting the seeds of this future in brave, creative, generative ways. Climate Resilience is also profoundly practical, with clear, actionable ideas and reflection prompts following the essays. This is a book that will help you find your place in a movement towards a world of just interdependence, deep connection, radical generosity, and climate resilience for all.” —Elizabeth Bechard, senior policy analyst for Moms Clean Air Force and author of Parenting in a Changing Climate

Eye opening

A book that really makes you think how all of us can actually do something about global warming. Clearly our political leaders aren’t getting the message, and there needs to be a universal effort by all of us, until they do. This books provides amazing insights as to how all of us can get involved. Inspiring!
