“With a climate-denying party controlling the government, it can seem that there’s no hope.... But a new book might change that--and serve as a blueprint for what comes next if the U.S. government (and the global community) begins to aggressively focus on altering the climate future. Drawdown is likely the most comprehensive model of climate solutions ever made.” — Fast Company “It will give you the best kind of hope, the kind that balances realism with radical vision.... Stabilizing the climate system will require a heroic global effort, but the point here is [that]...such an effort can do more than merely succeed; that it can succeed well, and open into futures that we can actually bear to contemplate.” — The Nation |
“Be kindly unto the scientists, for they may just save our skin—and make us happier and wealthier in the bargain.... [Drawdown] brings good news: not only is the world worth saving, but we can correct some of the worst effects of global warming.... An optimistic program for getting out of our current mess, well deserving of the broadest possible readership.” “[T]here’s been no real way for ordinary people to get an understanding of what they can do and what impact it can have. There remains no single, comprehensive, reliable compendium of carbon-reduction solutions across sectors. At least until now.... [T]he public is hungry for this kind of practical wisdom.” — Vox |
“If you understand American evangelical Christianity, representing at least a quarter of the US population, as the politically and theologically complex, fractious, and ultimately mainstream phenomenon that it is, then you’ll appreciate the nuance and sensitivity with which Katharine Wilkinson navigates her subject in Between God & Green. Wilkinson tells a vitally important, even subversive, story at the heart of this carefully researched book.” — Boston Globe
“This may be the most detailed and important book on the subject of evangelical concern over climate change. It is certainly the most comprehensive and provides a great insider view on a burgeoning movement.... [But] perhaps the most compelling element of the book is that it is a well-told story.” — Sociology of Religion |
“Between God & Green makes a number of important contributions to religious and environmental studies and deserves a wide audience, both academic and popular.... [Wilkinson’s] analysis goes a long way toward explaining the divisive nature of climate change among evangelicals.” |
“Between God & Green is a great story, one where faith breaks free of conventional boundaries and expectations and expresses itself in a profound way on one of the great moral and political challenges of our time, the human threat to the stability of the planet’s climate.” — James Gustave Speth
