Beginning November 13, BC students will be meeting in room A208 to read and discuss Naomi Klein’s latest book\u00a0This Changes Everything.<\/i><\/p>\n
In This Changes Everything <\/i>Naomi Klein argues that climate change isn\u2019t just another issue to be neatly filed between taxes and health care. It\u2019s an alarm that calls us to fix an economic system that is already failing us in many ways. Klein meticulously builds the case for how massively reducing our greenhouse emissions is our best chance to simultaneously reduce gaping inequalities, re-imagine our broken democracies, and rebuild our gutted local economies.\u00a0Klein argues that the changes to our relationship with nature and one another that are required to respond to the climate crisis humanely should not be viewed as grim penance, but rather as a kind of gift\u2014a catalyst to transform broken economic and cultural priorities and to heal long-festering historical wounds. And she documents the inspiring movements that have already begun this process: communities that are not just refusing to be sites of further fossil fuel extraction but are building the next, regeneration-based economies right now.<\/p>\n
