It’s a list of what has stuck with us, and some notes on why. It’s a list to try to collect ourselves in the face of an overwhelming force – global climate change – and pour out into the world a little of what it has given us. It is not comprehensive; the readings we chose were deeply informed and shaped by our personal biases, perspectives, and reading preferences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerhaps, then, this list is best described as a small selection of wildflowers from a small section of meadow, while the rest of the field and forest rolls on toward the horizon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe hope this zine is a place of connection, a way of building solidarity and relationships across time and space. We hope some of these stories recommended within can help turn climate despair into something less stagnant, that others will fill you with wonder and incredulity, and still more will remind you of the power we all have to grow a sustained, thriving, equitable, and extravagantly joyful world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"kv artists\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ANEMONE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54451214614821,"sku":null,"price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1033\/3569\/0533\/files\/ANEMONE_climateemergencyreadingrecsDSC03093.jpg?v=1794374259"},{"product_id":"how-change-happens-reading-recs","title":"How Change Happens: Reading Recs","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow do we make change? What might changes in the future look like? This zine, edited by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/adamgreenhall.com\/\"\u003eAdam Greenhall\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, collects 50+ books that have shifted the way he's thought about those questions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the books recommended here, there are some patterns of change. Sometimes movements work to make change over many years, sometimes revolution breaks out seemingly overnight. The ideas for change can emerge from outsider societies on the fringes of culture, or power and money can drive change. Compounding problems building over years and the feeling of constant precarity can push a society toward change. Change can emerge from within the system itself, but more often the powerful fight against change to the bitter end. Change doesn’t necessarily have a consistent long-term direction, as becomes clearer in looking at the history of early changes and experimentation in humanity’s past. And change isn’t always positive — sometimes it takes the forms of unraveling and collapse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThese books and the stories within them are a mix of history of past changes, our current pressures and problems, and some positive visions of the future. If there is any single source of change, it is the imagination. As one of the authors here says “most Americans have been taught since a very young age to have extremely limited political horizons, an extremely narrow sense of human possibility”. Hopefully this reading list can help you also to expand your horizons and imagine a wider set of possibilities for the future.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANEMONE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54451305972005,"sku":null,"price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1033\/3569\/0533\/files\/howchangehappenscover.jpg?v=1794374711"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1033\/3569\/0533\/collections\/ANEMONE_climateemergencyreadingrecsDSC03093.jpg?v=1794430415","url":"https:\/\/shop.anemone.studio\/collections\/reading-recs.oembed","provider":"ANEMONE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
