Recenzii

An overarching yet detailed introduction to intersectional environmentalism ...Thomas's work is essential brain food
An essential read, this book gives voice to a movement that will define a generation
As much a manifesto as a guide
Read this book and save the planet
Vital
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
Magnificent, unapologetically questioning ... helps readers frame their experiences and those of their community, question concepts of privilege and ownership, and better understand how climate change impacts the most marginalised
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
Leah's urgent work has caused a sea-change in how we talk about the climate crisis online, her timely book expands on that essential work. I'm so grateful that it exists. It not only breathes the much-needed life that youth bring into the movement, but also honors the wisdom of those who paved the way for Intersectional Environmentalism. We need more voices like Leah's - and the many included in the book - in every space. A livable and just future for all of us depends on it
[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
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
Significant and impactful ... The Intersectional Environmentalist is helpful not only for people who work within this field but also for those who are looking to learn more or enter it and become the next generation of activists ... a necessary read
