REVIEWS TO DATE

As issues of equity and justice move centre stage worldwide, how do we develop a responsive, unified, intersectional environmentalism? This challenge is not new, but Bell has assembled an excellent collection that utilizes academic, personal and experiential perspectives to give us fresh, creative new ideas. 

Julian Agyeman, Professor of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning, Tufts University 

A well-timed, much needed holistic approach to the ways in which social inequalities such as class and disability are manifested in mainstream environmentalism. Everyone involved in environmental campaigning should read this book!

Lucie Marks, Key Relationships Officer, Greenpeace UK

This book pulls together social movements from around the world that have been at the frontline of fighting for climate justice. It will support the growing movement for socially just environmental policies like the Green New Deal.

Natasha Josette, Community Organiser, Green New Deal

This book is a much needed, detailed dissection of the lack of diversity within the environmental sector. It is thoroughly researched and sets out everything the sector needs to know to make the change.
