About the book

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.

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 each other 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, this book is a collection and celebration of visionaries who are leading us on a path toward all we can save.

Updated with a new introduction from Robin Wall Kimmerer, the hardcover special edition of Braiding Sweetgrass, reissued in honor of the fortieth anniversary of Milkweed Editions, celebrates the book as an object of meaning that will last the ages. Beautifully bound with a new cover featuring an engraving by Tony Drehfal, this edition includes a bookmark ribbon, and five brilliantly colored illustrations by artist Nate Christopherson. In increasingly dark times, we honor the experience that more than 350,000 readers in North America have cherished about the book-gentle, simple, tactile, beautiful, even sacred-and offer an edition that will inspire readers to gift it again and again, spreading the word about scientific knowledge, indigenous wisdom, and the teachings of plants.

As a botanist, Robin Wall Kimmerer has been trained to ask questions of nature with the tools of science. As a member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, she embraces the notion that plants and animals are our oldest teachers. In Braiding Sweetgrass, Kimmerer brings these two lenses of knowledge together to take us on "a journey that is every bit as mythic as it is scientific, as sacred as it is historical, as clever as it is wise" (Elizabeth Gilbert).

Drawing on her life as an indigenous scientist, a mother, and a woman, Kimmerer shows how other living beings-asters and goldenrod, strawberries and squash, salamanders, algae, and sweetgrass-offer us gifts and lessons, even if we've forgotten how to hear their voices. In a rich braid of reflections that range from the creation of Turtle Island to the forces that threaten its flourishing today, she circles toward a central argument: that the awakening of a wider ecological consciousness requires the acknowledgment and celebration of our reciprocal relationship with the rest of the living world. For only when we can hear the languages of other beings will we be capable of understanding the generosity of the earth, and learn to give our own gifts in return.

Description

From the 2022 TIME100 Next honoree and the activist who coined the term comes a primer on intersectional environmentalism for the next generation of activists looking to create meaningful, inclusive, and sustainable change. The Intersectional Environmentalist examines the inextricable link between environmentalism, racism, and privilege, and promotes awareness of the fundamental truth that we cannot save the planet without uplifting the voices of its people - especially those most often unheard. Written by Leah Thomas, a prominent voice in the field and the activist who coined the term "Intersectional Environmentalism," this book is simultaneously a call to action, a guide to instigating change for all, and a pledge to work towards the empowerment of all people and the betterment of the planet.

Thomas shows how not only are Black, Indigenous and people of color unequally and unfairly impacted by environmental injustices, but she argues that the fight for the planet lies in tandem to the fight for civil rights; and in fact, that one cannot exist without the other. An essential read, this book addresses the most pressing issues that the people and our planet face, examines and dismantles privilege, and looks to the future as the voice of a movement that will define a generation.
Read Excerpt Request Desk/Exam Copy

"The founder of Intersectional Environmentalist is building toward a greener, more equitable future by advocating for both sustainability and social justice while spotlighting communities that have been underrepresented in the space... She's aiming to set the movement on the right path with her new book, The Intersectional Environmentalist."

instyle.com

"Too often, environmentalist proposals and platforms appear willing to sacrifice people - usually the most vulnerable - in exchange for saving the planet. Leah Thomas' The Intersectional Environmentalist aims to fix this problem, offering philosophical defenses for protecting those affected most by climate change, as well as strategies young activists can use to turn theory into practice."

Bustle.com

The Revelator

"An overarching yet detailed introduction to intersectional environmentalism...Thomas's work is essential brain food..."

Condé Nast Traveler

"Read this book and save the planet."

Soho House

"An essential read, this book gives voice to a movement that will define a generation."

Yale Climate Connections

"[ The Intersectional Environmentalist] shares data in an accessible, compelling, and engaging manner, and explores a variety of topics, including ableism, veganism, green energy, representation and more. It's dense, but not overwhelming, and it also provides a "tool kit" and a supplementary reading list, to help you expand your knowledge once you finish this book. The Intersectional Environmentalist is at once a call to action, a guide to galvanize change, and a way to empower all people towards the betterment of the planet."

She Does the City

" The Intersectional Environmentalist is a useful start for anyone looking to get involved with or understand more about environmental justice, and who wants to learn about it through a framework that ensures the most vulnerable are centered."

Shondaland

"Intersectionality is kind of a clunky word and the literature around it has often been quite academic. Thomas makes in understandable, and perhaps most importantly, practical...this is a book that will read well in the community, with opportunities for learning together and doing things differently."

" If you want to sustainably wrap gifts, there is a Japanese method called Furoshiki wrapping that reuses clothes or other fabrics to wrap your gifts. You can tie the fabric to look like a bow on top or top it with seasonal foliage like pinecones cut in half, twigs from a pine tree, or writing a personal gratitude note."

"A new community center in my parent's hometown held a fundraiser selling engraved bricks for a pathway project through their garden. For Christmas, I purchased a brick with a message inscribed to my parents. Not only did my gift support a great organization that my parents love, but now they have a fun reminder of their gift every time they stroll through the garden.

"Ask everyone to give to those who have little or nothing. Gifts of phones, Wi-Fi, cars, fuel coupons, bus passes, clothes, etc. are greatly needed in many homes. Also coupons for restaurants, ball games, concerts etc. to provide them the chance of a rare outing."

Winner of the 2019 Pulitzer Prize in Fiction
Shortlisted for the 2018 Man Booker Prize
New York Times Bestseller
ANew York Times Notable Book and a Washington Post, Time, Oprah Magazine, Newsweek, Chicago Tribune, Kirkus Reviews, and Amazon Best Book of the Year Now Available in Paperback
The Overstory, winner of the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction, is a sweeping, impassioned work of activism and resistance that is also a stunning evocation of-and paean to-the natural world. From the roots to the crown and back to the seeds, Richard Powers's twelfth novel unfolds in concentric rings of interlocking fables that range from antebellum New York to the late twentieth-century Timber Wars of the Pacific Northwest and beyond. There is a world alongside ours-vast, slow, interconnected, resourceful, magnificently inventive, and almost invisible to us. This is the story of a handful of people who learn how to see that world and who are drawn up into its unfolding catastrophe.

Praise for The Overstory by Richard Powers

"Autumn makes me think of leaves, which makes me think of trees, which makes me think of The Overstory, the best novel ever written about trees, and really, just one of the best novels, period." -Ann Patchett

"Monumental... The Overstory accomplishes what few living writers from either camp, art or science, could attempt. Using the tools of the story, he pulls readers heart-first into a perspective so much longer-lived and more subtly developed than the human purview that we gain glimpses of a vast, primordial sensibility, while watching our own kind get whittled down to size...A gigantic fable of genuine truths." -Barbara Kingsolver, New York Times Book Review (cover review)

"Remarkable...This ambitious novel soars up through the canopy of American literature and remakes the landscape of environmental fiction." -Ron Charles, Washington Post

"A big, ambitious epic...Powers juggles the personal dramas of his far-flung cast with vigor and clarity. The human elements of the book-the arcs his characters follow over the decades from crusading passion to muddled regret and a sense of failure-are thoroughly compelling. So are the extra-human elements, thanks to the extraordinary imaginative flights of Powers's prose, which persuades you on the very first page that you're hearing the voices of trees as they chide our species." -Michael Upchurch, Boston Globe

"A rousing, full-throated hymn to Nature's grandeur." -Dan Cryer, San Francisco Chronicle

"An extraordinary novel...An astonishing performance...There is something exhilarating, too, in reading a novel whose context is wider than human life. The Overstory leaves you with a slightly adjusted frame of reference...What was happening to his characters passed into my conscience, like alcohol into the bloodstream, and left a feeling behind of grief or guilt, even after I put it down." -Benjamin Markovits, The Guardian

"[Powers is] brilliant on the strange idea of 'plant personhood...' opening our eyes to the wondrous things just above our line of sight. Memorable chapters unfold [with] many unforgettable images in a novel devoted to 'reviving that dead metaphor at the heart of the word bewilderment.'" -Sam Sacks, Wall Street Journal

"Richard Powers' 12th novel is a rare specimen: a Great American Eco-Novel." -Financial Times

"This book is beyond special. Richard Powers manages to turn trees into vivid and engaging characters, something that indigenous people have done for eons but that modern literature has rarely if ever even attempted. It's not just a completely absorbing, even overwhelming book; it's a kind of breakthrough in the ways we think about and understand the world around us, at a moment when that is desperately needed." -Bill McKibben

" The Overstory is a visionary, accessible legend for the planet that owns us, its exaltation and its peril, a remarkable achievement by a great writer." -Thomas McGuane

" The Overstory is a visionary, accessible legend for the planet that owns us, its exaltation and its peril, a remarkable achievement by a great writer." -Tim Martin, Telegraph (UK)

"A colleague of mine once claimed that a critic's opinions are worth less than his or her ability to convey what a book is like. If that's true, never mind that I believe Richard Powers' 12th novel to be a masterwork sculpted from sheer awe. Instead, know that reading The Overstory will convince you that we walk among gods every time we enter a forest." -Adam Morgan, Minneapolis Star Tribune

"The time is ripe for a big novel that tells us as much about trees as Moby-Dick does about whales... The Overstory is that novel and it is very nearly a masterpiece...On almost every page of The Overstory you will find sentences that combine precision and vision." -The Times (London)

"An immense and intense homage to the arboreal world (its biological sophistication, its rich panoply of environmental benefits), the book is alive with riveting data, cogent reasoning and urgent argument. Pages that take you into menaced remnants of primeval forest or contemplate singularly splendid or fascinating trees teem with knowledge and gleam with aesthetic appeal." -The Sunday Times (UK)

"Richard Powers's novel will complicate the way you think about the environment, activism, our gossamer connection with each other and nature...[I] cannot recommend The Overstory enough." -Bradford Morrow

"A masterpiece of operatic proportions...A magnificent achievement." -Kirkus (starred review)

"A magnificent saga...Powers's sylvan tour de force is alive with gorgeous descriptions; continually surprising, often heartbreaking characters; complex suspense; unflinching scrutiny of pain; celebration of creativity and connection; and informed and expressive awe over the planet's life force and its countless and miraculous manifestations...profound and symphonic." -Booklist (starred review)

"A deep meditation on the irreparable psychic damage that manifests in our unmitigated separation from nature." -Library Journal (starred review)

"Vast, magnificent, and disturbing...An array of human temperaments and predicaments as manifold as Charles Dickens' or Leo Tolstoy's...I have never read anything so pessimistic and yet so hopeful." -BookPage

Overview

Right now, humanity is confronting one of the greatest challenges we've ever faced. Our climate is changing-rapidly. If we're to prevent the worst effects of climate change, we'll need to lower greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050. And to meet that deadline, we'll need to innovate like never before.

In Solving for Zero, explore the many different challenges we face, and how technology can help us do things differently, from how we make building materials to how we move around the world to how we grow food for an increasing population. This feature-length documentary, inspired by Bill Gates' best-selling book, "How to Avoid a Climate Disaster," is an informative and inspiring adventure into how everything we do needs to be done differently in order to adapt to rising sea levels, droughts, and other climate-related challenges.

You'll meet the innovators and investors willing to take incredible risks to do incredible things, from harnessing the energy of a star while on Earth to building the largest sailing vessel in human history. And you'll discover how, when you have enough smart people working on a problem, anything is possible. Even saving the planet.
