**An intersectional primer for saving the planet: place-based perspectives and community-led tools for fighting climate change—for readers of The Intersectional Environmentalist and All We Can Save "An essential, inspired chorus of voices echoing the urgency of action in the fight against climate change." —Kirkus Reviews** In Climate Resilience, climate justice and resilience strategist Kylie Flanagan invites us to see and act beyond status-quo solutions, Big Tech promises...and everything we’re usually told about how to save the planet. Centering the voices of Native Rights activists, queer liberation ecologists, youth climate-justice organizers, Latinx wilderness activists, and others on the front lines, Climate Resilience urges us toward a vision of climate care that invests in place-based, community-led projects focused on: Relationship Repair Ecological Restoration Economic Regeneration Collective Care Community Adaptation Cultural Strategy People Power Each section offers practical blueprints for engaging with different aspects of climate-change action through mutual aid, seed-saving, community-owned energy, community safety plans, and more, and includes a range of ideas for readers to apply these strategies in their own communities. Cohesion & Community: How we cultivate the radical inclusion we need for communities to respond to climate-change threats--and so the people most impacted can survive and thrive Ecology & Economy: How people are working to reclaim ancestral knowledge, restore relationships with people and place, and build resilience strategies Mitigation & Adaptation: Stories and guidance for adapting our communities to withstand extreme weather events through savvy policy, planning, and partnerships Each short chapter offers a concrete blueprint for mitigating one aspect of climate change through mutual aid, seed-saving, energy collectives, community safety plans, and more, and includes a resilience tool or liberation framework to apply these strategies to our own lives and activism.
