4.9/5 (18497 ratings)

Description:A smart, bold and inclusive call to arms: we can fix the climate emergency by fighting for gender equality.Women are the answer to the climate crisis – but not because they should add to their workload by fixing it for us. Instead, we need gender equality. The highest-profile climate activists today are women and girls, but it’s a very different story at the top table: the future of the planet is being decided by men.Here’s a perverse truth: dominant masculinist assumptions helped produce the climate emergency, and yet it affects women particularly. Across the Pacific, domestic abuse spikes after bushfires and cyclones. In the global south, climate breakdown forces girls to drop out of school. In Northern Europe, many of those killed by heatwaves have been elderly women. And, from New Orleans to Bangladesh, the lives of poor women of colour are being profoundly re-shaped by a crisis they did nothing to create.This vital book shows that we’re not all in it together – but we could be. Drawing on feminist research and innovative climate policies introduced by women, Anne Karpf interviews female activists around the world about how they’re fighting back. Faced with the most urgent catastrophe of our times, Karpf offers a powerful, fresh vision: a Green New Deal for Women.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
