ENDORSEMENTS:
Nobody better understands both the state of the climate crisis and the ways we all delude ourselves into complacency than Margaret Klein Salamon. This book will wake you up, no matter how aware you think you are. Better still: it tells you what to do once you are awake. Read it!
David Wallace-Wells, New York Times Journalist and author The Uninhabitable Earth
Our civilization is asleep at the wheel as we speed headlong towards an irrevocable precipice. Margaret Klein Salamon and her Climate Emergency Fund are on the front lines of transformative action commensurate with the crisis we are all facing. This book is an exhortation and a wake up call. Everyone should read it.
JEREMY STRONG, EMMY AWARD WINNING ACTOR
Facing the Climate Emergency brilliantly addresses a major gap in the movement space – a need to incorporate the psychological needs of the people who want to act, but are struggling to find their path.
We know from other struggles that fear and paralysis make injustice and harm possible – and maybe even inevitable. And that only when we cast off our fear, can we wield the power we need to win.
This book is precisely the antidote to hopelessness and despair that we need. I hope everyone reads it – our capacity to avert a dark future depends on it.
JAMILA RAQIB, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE ALBERT EINSTEIN INSTITUTION
