Climate Resilience: How We Keep Each Other Safe, Care for Our Communities, and Fight Back Against Climate Change

An intersectional primer for saving the planet: place-based perspectives and community-led tools for fighting climate change--for readers of The Intersectional Environmentalist and All We Can Save

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

In Climate Resilience, climate justice and resilience strategist Kylie Flanagan invites us to see and act beyond status-quo solutions, Big Tech promises...and everything we're usually told about how to save 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 readers to apply these strategies in their own communities.
