Content: The way that traditional long-form essays are punctuated with free-form poetry, where words are scattered across the pages, subtly makes this point. The essayists say it bluntly. Purchase via IndieBound or Amazon
For example, in her essay “A Field Guide for Transformation,” Leah Cardamore Stokes reflects on her own efforts to address climate change at increasingly large scales. She started as a child by getting her friends to recycle their milk boxes from school lunch, convinced her local grocery store to stop selling Chilean sea bass as a teenager, and eventually ran a campaign to get residence halls at her university to cut their energy usage. Now an assistant professor of political science who studies energy and environmental policy, Stokes writes, “No one can unilaterally choose to live in a low-carbon economy.” Climate change is an institutional and political challenge that will be solved if we can change these systems for the better. Together, the essays provide a roadmap for that change. The book is arranged in eight sections laying out the path: we must root, advocate, reframe, reshape, persist, feel, and nourish, until we finally rise. There was one sentence in nearly every essay that was so compelling I needed to write it down to digest later.
