How Humans Survive Humanity
Marine Biologist Dr Ayana Johnson's love for the ocean is a love that stretches across generations - through her childhood, and her father's relationship with marine life and his father's relationship with water, to her community, and the future we are leaving behind for our children, and their children after. How Humans Survive Humanity explores the different ways humans can reshape humanity in response to climate change from the individual and personal changes we need to make to the changes on a community level - and beyond. This book is expansive; current; positive; enlightening; covering everything from respect and collaboration to the future of food, technology, migration and culture. Above all, it is rooted in a deeply personal story; that of Johnson's experience of falling in love with the ocean, and the heartbreak she felt when she realized her true love was sick and dying.

Between God & Green
Despite three decades of scientists' warnings and environmentalists' best efforts, the political will and public engagement necessary to fuel robust action on global climate change remain in short supply. Katharine K. Wilkinson shows that, contrary to popular expectations, faith-based efforts are emerging and strengthening to address this problem. In the US, perhaps none is more significant than evangelical climate care. Drawing on extensive focus group and textual research and interviews, Between God & Green explores the phenomenon of climate care, from its historical roots and theological grounding to its visionary leaders and advocacy initiatives. Wilkinson examines the movement's recepti...
Short Circuiting Policy
"Short Circuiting Policy examines clean energy policies to understand why US states are not on track to meet the climate crisis. After two decades of leadership, American states are slipping in their commitment to transitioning away from dirty fossil fuels towards cleaner energy sources, including wind and solar. I argue that organized combat between advocate and opponent interest groups is central to explaining why US states have stopped expanding and even started weakening their renewable energy policies. Fossil fuel companies and electric utilities played a key role in spreading climate denial. Now, they have turned to climate delay, working to block clean energy policies from passing or ...
Refugia Faith
Refugia Faith: Seeking Hidden Shelters, Ordinary Wonders, and the Healing of the Earth explores how Christian spirituality and practice must adapt to prepare for life on a climate-altered planet. Refugia (reh-FU-jee-ah) is a biological term describing places of shelter where life endures in times of crisis, such as a volcanic eruption, fire, or stressed climate. Ideally, these refugia endure, expand, and connect so that new life emerges. Debra Rienstra applies this concept to human culture and faith, asking, In this era of ecological devastation, how can Christians become people of refugia? How can we find and nurture these refugia, not only in the biomes of the earth, but in our human cultu...
