Jonathon Porritt introduces his new book which asks: "What good are science and rational persuasion if no one is paying attention?"
About this Event

'Magnificent and crucial. This book should be a lodestone for all we believe in.' (George Monbiot)



Jonathon Porritt, veteran climate campaigner, advisor and writer, has consistently highlighted the environmental crisis and its threat to social and ecological justice - over 50 years of constantly looking for solutions.

His newly published, eleventh book, 'Love, Anger & Betrayal', visits the latest generation of climate activists and documents the experiences of 26 insightful young people - his co-authors - who joined Just Stop Oil's Nonviolent Civil Resistance. The book reveals their passion for a just and sustainable transition away from our global economic and cultural dependence on fossil fuels. But who, with the political power, is listening?

For more than fifty years Jonathon Porritt has been campaigning for the environment and social justice, while simultaneously advising governments, businesses and NGOs. The author of many highly respected books, he still believes that it is 'not too late' to avoid climate breakdown. But the thrust of this book, Love, Anger & Betrayal, is that very soon it will be.

The evening includes a book signing with the book on sale.

'This is a deeply uncomfortable but overwhelmingly necessary book' (Caroline Lucas, former leader of the Green Party and Green MP, 2010-24)
