#ClimateJustice

36 posts24 participants1 post today

How did the @ScientistRebellion movement emerge and spread so quickly around the world? My new book, Science in Resistance (out in October with UC Press) documents the evolution of the SR movement over the past 5 years. Combining personal stories, interviews with scientist-activists, and insights from research on direct action and academia, I explore the challenges scientists face when taking a stand for climate and ecological justice.

Half of the proceeds will go to SR and allied climate justice groups.

If large-scale action is going to take place quickly enough to stave off the worst damages of ecosystem breakdown, it will have to start at the top. We need total system change!

End capitalism. End colonialism. End imperialism. Break up the large nation-states. Commence degrowth.

Barring all that, which admittedly seems unlikely to happen, then it will be up to individuals and communities to make collective grassroots changes that might allow most of them to survive.

Either way, it's time to act.
