United Nations Champion of the Earth, climate scientist, and
evangelical Christian Katharine Hayhoe changes the debate on how we
can save our future in this nationally bestselling “optimistic
view on why collective action is still possible—and how it can be
realized” (The New York Times). Called “one of the nation’s
most effective communicators on climate change” by The New York
Times, Katharine Hayhoe knows how to navigate all sides of the
conversation on our changing planet. A Canadian climate scientist
living in Texas, she negotiates distrust of data, indifference to
imminent threats, and resistance to proposed solutions with ease.
Over the past fifteen years Hayhoe has found that the most
important thing we can do to address climate change is talk about
it—and she wants to teach you how. In Saving Us, Hayhoe argues
that when it comes to changing hearts and minds, facts are only one
part of the equation. We need to find shared values in order to
connect our unique identities to collective action. This is not
another doomsday narrative about a planet on fire. It is a
multilayered look at science, faith, and human psychology, from an
icon in her field—recently named chief scientist at The Nature
Conservancy. Drawing on interdisciplinary research and personal
stories, Hayhoe shows that small conversations can have astonishing
results. Saving Us leaves us with the tools to open a dialogue with
your loved ones about how we all can play a role in pushing forward
for change.
