About the Book

Unstoppable climate change. Extensive extinction. The breakdown ofecosystems. Mass displacement. Wars over resources. Societal collapse.The projections for our future feel too catastrophic to be plausible, toodistant to be true.But ecology is the study of the connections that sustain life, and DanielMacmillen Voskoboynik's book links history with biology, economics withphysics, to join the dots between our overlapping crises. Whether it beenvironmental degradation or damaged health, racial oppression or genderinjustice, our multiple problems have common roots but also shared solutions.Unpacking our past gives us the tools to build a more just future, wherecompetition and control give way for cooperation and care. Avoiding thesterile language that so often surrounds climate change, The Memory WeCould Be seeks to inspire, illustrating in human terms the world we couldlose and the world we can still win.Open its pages to come to terms with complexity, and heal our separationfrom nature and each other.FOREWORD BY RAOUL MARTINEZ, AUTHOR OF CREATINGFREEDOM: POWER, CONTROL AND THE FIGHT FOR OUR FUTURE

Review :
`As we navigate our way through the Anthropocene, we need young writers' voices more than ever. Clear, poetic and full of insight, Voskoboynik's book offers an exhilarating introduction to our ecological crisis, what caused it, and how we can imagine a better future.'- Jason Hickel, anthropologist at Goldsmiths University and author of The Divide: A Brief Guide to Global Inequality and its Solutions; `This book is a timely call to action to prevent climate breakdown. Those who care about protecting this planet should read Daniel's work - and prepare to build a new way of living.'-Caroline Lucas, Co-Leader of the Green Party of England and Wales; `What is missing in climate change literature are bold, compelling voices, accounts that are accountable to the dignity of the afflicted... Daniel's work is a beacon in this regard.'Asad Rehman, Executive Director of War on Want
