Description of: All We Can Save: Truth, Courage and Solutions for the Climate Crisis
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.
Purchase the book at bookshop.org, borrow it from your local library, or look for it on Amazon or Audible.
To learn more about how climate is affecting us locally in Massachusetts and the Blue Hills, you can also join us for our winter lecture series, Our Climate Crisis: Research and Opportunities for Action.

Good afternoon,
Happy June!
May I attend the book club session on June 11th?
Thanks so much!
For sure! So glad you’d like to join us. I believe I just sent you the Zoom link via email. If you don’t receive it, let me know.
Read this some years back, it was a good read, worth the time.
Jane,
Thanks so much for the plug! Hope you can join us on the 11th!

Can’t wait to read this — social isolation as a choice!
Good point!
Looking forward to the discussion.
Just sent to two other friends with whom i had recently shared this book. My friend Susan said it had relevance to our current hibernation. Looking forward to it!
Awesome! we’re looking forward to reading it too!
Abby, Thanks for spreading the word! We weren’t thinking about the hibernation piece as similar to our current situation, but… good perspective!
Looking forward to all things Blue Hills.
Awesome! 😀
Looking forward to this book group
We’re so glad you’re interested!
