All We Can Save: Truth, Courage, and Solutions to the Climate Crisis' : Celebrating Voices of Women Leading the Environmental Movement
About this Event

The next gathering of the Totnes Inner Transition Book Group @ The Climate Hub will be on Earth Day, Tuesday April 22nd at 3.30pm to 5.30pm



We will be discussing a collection of essays and poetry, celebrating the voices of women leading the environmental movement from the book 'All We Can Save: Truth, Courage, and Solutions to the Climate Crisis" Edited by Ayana Elizabeth Johnson and Katharine K. Wilkinson

“A mosaic that honors the complexity of the climate crisis like few, if any, books on the topic have done yet...a feast of ideas and perspectives, setting a big table for the climate movement, declaring all are welcome.” — Rolling Stone



About the book

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.

Intermixing essays with poetry and art, 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 each other 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, this book is a collection and celebration of visionaries who are leading us on a path toward all we can save.

So come and join this community gathering for a good discussion and a cup of tea - even if you don't manage to read the book, but you'd be interested in being there, you are welcome. There is a podcast of the editors of the book in discussion about it : https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/climate-one/id296762605?i=1000529060579

Space is limited so please do book a seat – if you would like to read aloud a particular passage or poem from the book at our gathering, let me know.
