HOPE AND COURAGE IN THE CLIMATE CRISIS - JOHN W...

As the risks of the climate crisis continue to grow  so too do the challenges of facing a harsh
climate future with honesty and courage  justice and compassion  meaning and purpose. Hope and
Courage in the Climate Crisis explores diverse sources of learning and wisdom -from climate
scientists and activists  philosophers and social theorists  Indigenous cultures and ways of
life  faith based and spiritual traditions  artists and writers -which can help us live
courageous  compassionate and creative lives in a world of rapidly accelerating climatic and
ecological risk. Accelerating the transition to a just and resilient zero-carbon society will
require visionary leadership and courageous collective action. Awareness that rapid action
might still be insufficient to prevent severe and irreversible social and ecological damage is
however a source of deep concern for many people passionately committed to decisive climate
action. Drawing on broad experience as a climate activist  researcher and policy maker John
Wiseman provides a wide ranging  accessible and provocative guided tour of ideas which can
inspire and sustain radical hope and defiant courage in the long emergency which now lies
before us.
