About this listen

Face the truth of climate change, accept your fears, and become the hero that humanity needs.

As the climate crisis accelerates toward the collapse of civilization and the natural world, people everywhere are feeling deep pain about ecological destruction and their role in it. Yet we are often paralyzed by fear.

Help is at hand. Facing the Climate Emergency gives people the tools to confront the climate emergency, face their negative emotions, and channel them into protecting humanity and the natural world.

Drawing on facts about the climate, tenets of psychological theory, information about the climate emergency movement and elements of memoir, coverage includes:

  • How to face the climate crisis and accept your fears, anger, grief, guilt, and other emotions
  • Turning negative feelings into tangible action to respond to the crisis
  • Rising to heroism, becoming a "climate warrior", and maximizing your impact by joining the Climate Emergency Movement
  • Support material, including further reading, questions for self-reflection, and exercises to complete with like-minded groups

Written for the suffering multitudes struggling to cope and looking for answers, Facing the Climate Emergency provides the motivation, guidance, and support needed to leave "normal" behind and travel the path of the climate warrior, rising to the challenge of our time.

So inspirational

This book was a real kick in the butt in terms of looking at my personal role and responsibility with the climate emergency. I really like how this book looked at the emotions involved—certainly ones I have felt—and shows you how you can use those feelings to effect change. I feel ready to be a climate warrior after reading this!

A kick in the pants

This book is a great motivational resource. Time for everyone to get off their collective hypnotized asses and take action. Do your part and work towards solving this problem. Protesting is a waste of time! Do the work!Solve the problems, organize and practice what you preach. Only you can prevent the global firestorm and biological collapse. Great book. Very concise and practical advice.

Intangible steps read by script

I am excited to fight the climate crisis. I wanted this book to give me tangible, actionable steps in fighting. I want to know what I can do! instead, this book talks about emotions and mindsets and how to care. it has almost zero evidence or statistical data to back up it's psychological motivation. There are TONS of uses of rhetorical questions which is just poor writing. The narrator also has an uneasy unnatural pacing that is hard to listen to. she speaks clearly and enunciates, but sounds gnawing and irritated, which may fit the message of the book but isn't enjoyable to listen to. Worst of all she sounds like she is reading a book and not talking to us. This unnatural cadence made it hard to get emotionally invested in the important messages.
