Discover wisdom and guidance to face the climate emergency from the most influential environmental and spiritual leaders of our time, including the Dalai Lama, Greta Thunberg, Joanna Macy, Vandana Shiva, Paul Hawken, Katharine Hayhoe, and Matthieu Ricard.

A rich dialogue with dozens of visionary scientists, activists, and spiritual luminaries in the time of climate crisis—featuring a comprehensive index. The book features voices such as Indigenous scholar and artist Lyla June, medical biochemist and author Diana Beresford-Kroeger, climate scientist and Zen teacher Kritee Kanko, interfaith environmental leader Dekila Chungyalpa, Buddhist teacher Willa Blythe Baker, Rabbi Steve Leder, and many more. Through this world-changing conversation, listeners embark on a four-part journey toward active hope in the face of the climate change: from knowledge of climate science, through the capacity for change, and to the will that is needed and the actions we can take. The book will help you:

Recognize interdependence as key to our well-being and as a lens for understanding both the climate crisis and its solutions.

Clarify why feedback loops leave us no time to wait on climate action.

Comfort your climate anxiety and metabolize grief or burnout into wonderment and useful energy.

Develop your own rituals and practices for connecting to Earth and renewing hope.

Overcome common obstacles to speaking and acting clearly on behalf of the human and wild communities most affected by the climate crisis.

A Future We Can Love inspires each of us to rise to the occasion to ensure a brighter future for generations to come.
