"Stan Cox cuts through the fog of mediocrity and offers a clear, honest vision for how social movements can win a truly just and sustainable society. There are few books I would recommend as wholeheartedly as this one. Don't miss it."--Jason Hickel, author of Less is More: How Degrowth Will Save the World "As Cox shows in this devastating but clear-eyed assessment, the multiple existential crises of our modern world--from climate change to pandemics--are interrelated and can be traced back to centuries of colonial domination of land and people."--Dina Gilio-Whitaker, author of As Long As Grass Grows: The Indigenous Fight for Environmental Justice from Colonization to Standing Rock "Stan Cox stands in a class of his own. . . . The Path to a Livable Future is a testament to the fact that meaningful responses to the multifarious crises we face are unlikely to come--first and foremost--from traditional urban liberal strongholds."--Felix Marquardt, author of The New Nomads: How the Migration Revolution is Transforming our Lives for the Better "[Stan Cox] offers clear steps to achieving the state of being required to launch a desperate fight to save the Earth (and our position in it) from all-out disaster. . . . His latest book must be read and his clarion call heeded."--Romi MahajanCountercurrents, "[Stan Cox] offers clear steps to achieving the state of being required to launch a desperate fight to save the Earth (and our position in it) from all-out disaster. . . .

Stan Cox reminds us of this historic dialogue and development of the Green New Deal, and helps us find the path back to those instructions."--Winona LaDuke (Anishinaabe), author of All Our Relations: Native Struggles for Land and Life and LaDuke Chronicles "Stan Cox suggests remedies that should ignite lively discussion and intense debate, which is sorely needed. A must-read for those who care about our shared planetary future."--Mary Evelyn Tucker, Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, co-author, Journey of the Universe "An invaluable contribution to what must become an unprecedented international revolution."--Will Potter, author of Green Is the New Red: An Insider's Account of a Social Movement Under Siege "Cox argues that this is not idealism, but necessity. By 2030 or 2040, if our aims and policies turn out to have been insufficient, as he points out, it will have been too late."--Natalie Suzelis, Uneven Earth "In this important and readable book, Stan Cox moves the Overton window away from false hope and toward a more realistic path for avoiding climate catastrophe."--Dr. Peter Kalmus, NASA climate scientist and author of Being the Change, "If you are a person who finds it difficult to cope with the environmental and climate crisis, The Path to a Livable Future furnishes a thoughtful, engaging introduction.

Synopsis
An urgent call for the political transformation needed to address the common causes of climate change, COVID-19, and racism., A Regional Independent Bookstore Bestseller! An urgent call for the political transformation needed to address the common causes of climate change, COVID-19, and racism. " . . . some big titles will address emergencies that have outlived Trump. The Path to a Livable Future by Stan Cox, explores the connections among the many crises of the past year and a half."--Dorany Pineda, Los Angeles Times 2020 was a year defined by crisis. For decades, scientists have been sounding the alarm about the urgency of addressing climate change, but it took COVID-19 to demonstrate clearly that the future of human life on Earth is interconnected and at risk. While the virus quickly spread across the globe, extreme weather events compounded the suffering and economic catastrophe. In the U.S., public demonstrations of outrage over the murder of George Floyd expanded to include a growing awareness of the pandemic's disproportionate impact on communities of color. In cities around the world, people took to the streets to protest racial inequity in all of its forms. In The Path to a Livable Future, Stan Cox makes plain the connections between the multiple crises facing us today, and provides an inspired vision for how to resolve them. With a deeply informed, clear to-do list, Cox shows us how we can work together to address the climate emergency, white supremacy, and our vulnerability to future pandemics all at once. Our future depends on it. "An iconoclast of the best kind, Stan Cox has an all-too-rare commitment to following arguments wherever they lead, however politicallydangerous that turns out to be."--Naomi Klein "Cox lays out a refreshingly grounded roadmap for the survival of all life on earth, based on up-to-date science, and anchored in the racial justice imperative."--Leah Penniman, co-founder of Soul Fire Farm, author of Farming While Black: Soul Fire Farm's Practical Guide to Liberation on the Land "Above all, he shows that a healthy, just, sustainable future is possible if we reduce our ecological footprint and share the earth's gifts equitably. For this we need to organize, resist, imagine, and forge another path together."--Vandana Shiva, author of Who Really Feeds the World?: The Failures of Agribusiness and the Promise of Agroecology, This book evolved from the crises of 2020: fighting a pandemic, climate catastrophe, and racial injustice. The author's previous book The Green New Deal and Beyond was published in April 2020, at the beginning of the pandemic, so it, obviously, suffered from those limitations. Whereas The Green New Deal and Beyond exclusively focuses on climate policy, The Path examines the lessons to learned from 2020 to fight for climate justice and racial justice and prevent the next pandemic. The book, unlike any other, shows the crises' common causes and urgently argues that the best way to eradicate each is together. Cox's call for political change and cross-border solidarity will resonate deeply with those who support Black Lives Matter, environmental justice movements, and efforts to prevent future pandemics. Cox's plan's for reversing climate change is detailed and clear. Stan Cox's publishing profile, career, and agricultural work positions him has as a credible, common-sense voice for the necessity of making changes to national policy, social norms, and individual lifestyles. Written in clear language for all types of readers, the book's proposed solutions are concrete, common sense, and accessible. Foreword authored by Zenobia Jeffries Warfield, Executive Editor of YES Magazine and a leading contributor on matters of racial justice. The author has a strong media track record to build upon. This includes including A-list media interviews for his previous books on NPR Morning Edition, Marketplace, NPR's "1A", MSNBC, On Point, Here and Now, 99 Percent Invisible podcast, The Weather Channel, WNYC/NPR's The Brian Lehrer Show, CBC Radio, Salon, Architect Magazine, VICE Motherboard, ABC News, Chicago Tribune, Economist, Daily Mail, and FOX Business. Feature stories in New York Times, LA Times, Boston Globe, Macleans, and National Post. Op-eds in Washington Post, NY Times, Guardian, Yale e360, & Al Jazeera., A Regional Independent Bookstore Bestseller!
