Why read it?
1 author picked The Light We Give as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
While this is not written as a climate-related book, it was a powerful reminder that we all have goodness within us; we all have a role to play in moving the world into the place we believe it can be.
It addresses social and racial justice, which is part of the climate conversation, and gives us a framework to believe in our own journey and voice. I believe that every single one of us has an important role to play, and this book can help readers figure out what that could be for them.
From Tina's list on helping you process emotions around climate.
