Join us for a discussion of A Planet to Win, which calls for profound, radical change and the end of climate gradualism by dismantling the fossil fuel industry, building beautiful landscapes of renewable energy, and guaranteeing climate-friendly work, no-carbon housing, and free public transit. The Green New Deal resolution introduced by Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Edward J. Markey aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in order to avoid the worst consequences of climate change while also trying to fix societal problems like economic inequality and racial injustice. This inspiring book shows how a Green New Deal can tackle the climate emergency and strengthen climate justice movements worldwide.
