Resumen del Editor

Provocative and illuminating essays from women at the forefront of the climate movement who are harnessing truth, courage, and solutions to lead humanity forward.

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.

All We Can Save illuminates the expertise and insights of dozens of diverse women leading on climate in the United States - scientists, journalists, farmers, lawyers, teachers, activists, innovators, wonks, and designers, across generations, geographies, and race - and aims to advance a more representative, nuanced, and solution-oriented public conversation on the climate crisis. These women offer a spectrum of ideas and insights for how we can rapidly, radically reshape society.

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 one another 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, the book is a collection and celebration of visionaries who are leading us on a path toward all we can save.

This audiobook includes a PDF of climate resources and references.

“Hopeful and illuminating, All We Can Save is an anthology of essays by women at the forefront of the climate crisis.

Thank you.

This opened my eyes to so much that I had not thought of before. I am so grateful that all the contributors to this book shared their knowledge and offered ways to help with this crisis.

Saved My Life

I'm a 30 year old that has dealt with tremendous climate despair, anxiety and suicidal ideation since childhood. I learned to repress these feelings more or less, but it kept me from participating in the climate movement for fear of releasing this Pandora's box of overwhelming emotion. Last year after the sky turned orange due to wildfires near my home, I knew for my own emotional survival somehow I needed to join the movement and I also knew that my entry needed to be grounded and heart centered if I were to do it sustainably.

Enter this book. I grabbed my friend (a climate activist) who was one of the few people I had been able to commiserate with on climate anxiety and we did the All We Can Save Circle together over a period of 3 months. The experience was transformative and I am really and truly finding my place in the movement because of it. It helped me see the true kaleidoscope of roles that needed filling (as a disabled artist, I needed to see that diversity of roles), it helped me realize I was not alone, it validated my fears and in the same motion uplifted me.

Not only did it help me begin my climate activism, but it also helped me unravel a heavy knot of grief and guilt and I've carried since childhood. It left me valuing my own precious human life in a way that I never have before.

Changed my world

This connected with me reply and has changed my actions for the better. I was someone who thought that all this climate change would fix itself. Not a denier, but not a believer in our involvement in climate change. Specifically the Beyond coal story struck me, as someone who lives in Central Pennsylvania. Where coal was king and still is in certain counties In drive through. Every story gave me room to reflect and research how I could change. I wanted to share everything. I shared this book both in the beginning and halfway through to social media and people directly who I felt would benefit from it. I found the related articles, organizations, etc and shared those too. I am actively working to improve my company's business to be more intentional with how we can do better for the environment.

This book is a game changer for me.

Inspiring, uplifting, beautifully read!

This audiobook is amazing! It's read by so many amazing women. Great collection + super cool audiobook.

Climate change can be so overwhelming. Yet, the fact is there is still so much we can do to stop this crisis. This is an amazing new collection by something like 60 women working on climate change. I got to read an early copy and was blown away. There is art, poetry, inspiring stories. I felt like we can tackle this problem after reading this book. I really recommend it if you are freaked out and want to know what we can do: talk about climate change in our daily lives, change policy, support independent climate journalists, write to our representatives, take to the streets.

There is so much left that we can save! Inspiring.

Climate Action Inspiration

Many useful and creative stories and poems to help us build a climate safer world.

A powerful message!

All We Can Save is a powerful book that I think everyone should read. It shares stories of all the solutions, hope, and challenges that come with the climate crisis. So inspiring.

The reason that I gave it a four star rating for performance is that I read the book while listening to it and it missed about 16 contributors to the book and should have read the climate solutions found on page 377 to give people ideas to support making a difference in the solutions of climate change.

Essential, educational, empowering

The essays in this book are beautifully written and an important reminder of how critical community and diversity are in our ecosystems (whether in “nature” or in human institutions, as well as in their interplay). We need to pay attention to these leaders and do our own part to bring ourselves and our communities back into equilibrium with the natural world we depend on. We must become citizen lobbyists for this crisis!

All people should read this beautiful book

This book brings climate feminist voices to light. Every chapter makes you think about the climate crisis in a different way. I literally laughed out loud and cried from the book. Open your mind and learn something new from this book of amazing women!

We are not alone.

Not alone in the fight for change, not alone in the climate crisis anxiety and depression, not alone in our decision making for our own futures. May it be careers, education and family 👪 decisions. This book helped me learn new ways ( individually and as an activist) in communicating climate crisis to ppl.
thank you for this book, I will keep up the fight.
