X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Starting from a common base to have real d
 iscussions about the environment\, this book discussion club is a great wa
 y to deepen ideas\, have respectful debates while listening to the points 
 of view of others and broaden our understanding and vision on this importa
 nt topic. Together\, we may discover new forms of commitment and imagine n
 ew sustainable and desirable horizons.</p>\n<p>This month's selection is <
 em>What if we get it right: visions of climate futures</em>\, by Ayana Eli
 zabeth Johnson. "Sometimes the bravest thing we can do while facing an exi
 stential crisis is imagine life on the other side. This provocative and jo
 yous book maps an inspiring landscape of possible climate futures. Through
  clear-eyed essays and vibrant conversations\, infused with data\, poetry\
 , and art\, Ayana Elizabeth Johnson guides us through solutions and possib
 ilities at the nexus of science\, policy\, culture\, and justice. Visionar
 y farmers and financiers\, architects and advocates help us conjure a flou
 rishing future\, one worth the effort it will take-from all of us\, with w
 hatever we have to offer-to create. If you haven't yet been able to pictur
 e a transformed and replenished world-or see yourself\, your loved ones\, 
 and your community in it- this book is for you. If you haven't yet found y
 our role in shaping this new world\, or you're not sure how we can actuall
 y get there\, this book is for you. With grace\, humor\, and humanity\, Ay
 ana invites readers to ask and answer this ultimate question\, together: W
 hat if we get it right?" -- Provided by publisher.</p>\n<p>A limited numbe
