Why read it?
2 authors picked Facing the Climate Emergency as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
When I first began to really notice climate change and the effects that were already happening, I felt like I was working through stages of grief.
Dr. Klein Salamon, a climate psychologist, explained why this was happening. Reading this book brought tears to my eyes as she described all the stages of grief in a way that made me feel seen, heard. I was not being irrational and hysterical, I was reacting in the way human beings are meant to (and do).
This book helped me process and move into action, rather than being paralyzed in fear.
From Tina's list on helping you process emotions around climate.
I found this book to be an inspiring and practical self-help book for the 21st century, challenging us to overcome denial about the global climate emergency and honor our grief, fear, and anger, so we can better take part in the urgently needed transformation of our society and economy.
From Molly's list on building resilience in hard times.
