Unstoppable climate change. Extensive extinction. The breakdown of ecosystems.

Mass displacement. Wars over resources. Societal collapse.

The projections for our future feel too catastrophic to be plausible, toodistant to be true. But ecology is the study of the connections that sustain life, and DanielMacmillen Voskoboynik's book links history with biology, economics withphysics, to join the dots between our overlapping crises. Whether it beenvironmental degradation or damaged health, racial oppression or genderinjustice, our multiple problems have common roots but also shared solutions.

Unpacking our past gives us the tools to build a more just future, wherecompetition and control give way for cooperation and care. Avoiding thesterile language that so often surrounds climate change, The Memory WeCould Be seeks to inspire, illustrating in human terms the world we couldlose and the world we can still win. Open its pages to come to terms with complexity, and heal our separation from nature and each other.
