The KQED Climate Book Club is seeking votes for their next reading selection, with options ranging from environmental history to Indigenous activism. Notable titles include "Animal, Vegetable, Junk" by Mark Bittman, which explores modern agriculture, and "As Long as Grass Grows" by Dina Gilio-Whitaker, emphasizing Indigenous environmental justice. The initiative aims to engage readers in crucial conversations about climate and environmental issues, fostering community interaction on platforms like Discord. Voting is open until May 5, highlighting a commitment to incorporating diverse perspectives in climate discussions.
From the publisher: "Climate Stewardship shares stories from everyday people and shows how their actions enhance the resilience of communities and ecosystems across ten distinct bioregions."
The New York Times book review said Bittman gives a "clear and compelling compendium of modern agriculture. In particular, his rendering of the early mechanization of the American farm is epic and engrossing."
