Authentic and inspiring, Everything that Rises personalizes the
realities of climate change by paralleling the relationship we have
with our planet to the way we interact within our own homes. Many
Millennials begin their professional lives in the background,
working for causes unchosen by them, for wages barely enough to
scrape by. Brianna Craft’s first internship, however, was
assisting the Least Developed Countries Group during the United
Nations’ climate change negotiations. Conditions were similar.
The cause was not. Brianna is thrown directly into the middle of
the talks. While working for those most ignored and affected by the
climate crisis, she must find her own voice in rooms filled with
the world’s most powerful people. A dynamic that painfully
reminds her of what it felt like growing up in a house where the
loudest voice always won. Four years later, she witnesses the
adoption of the first universal climate change treaty, The Paris
Climate Agreement. But despite the signing of the 2015 treaty, the
crisis rages on. Brianna confronts her own history to further the
cause and navigate the future. It will take all of us to save our
home.
