The Climate Book by Greta Thunberg is 2025’s final climate story 🤩📖❤️ Each month of 2025, I picked a climate book and gabbed about it. We desperately need good climate stories and it feels good to spread the word about ones that speak to me!

Ten years ago, we adopted the #ParisAgreement. But how could that have been 10 years ago?! We’re so young 😅 UN climate friends, great seeing you at #COP30! Want a copy of my memoir set in the run up to Paris? Is it difficult to find Everything That Rises at home?

We Will Not Be Saved is this month’s climate story 📖❤️ Nemonte’s memoir of Waorani life is steeped in love for the Amazon & family. Thanks for sharing your journey to rally your people to envision & attain the future they want - amidst invasion by colonial gods, oil & deceit. #loveisclimateaction

Did #COP30 advanced gender equality? Despite efforts to block work furthering gender equality & climate action, leaders adopted the nine-year Belém gender action plan. Though the Belém GAP will stand, efforts to backtrack progress will likely continue. Read on @odi.global: odi.org/en/insights/...

What can leaders at #COP30 do to further gender equality & climate action? For @odi.global, I’ve written up five outcomes to watch for: odi.org/en/insights/... The UN climate negotiations face strong political headwinds, but progress which ignores inequality is an illusion.

Today, we kick off a crucial 2-day strategy meeting ahead of COP30 in Brazil (Nov 10-21). Representatives from 44 countries unite to solidify positions & advocate for nearly 1 billion people in vulnerable settings. @City Park/Hanger Convention Centre #United4ClimateAction #LDCs

This month’s climate story is so terrifyingly topical ☠️😱 I’m a MASSIVE fan of Harriet A. Washington’s work. Thank you, so much for A TERRIBLE THING TO WASTE: ENVIRONMENTAL RACISM AND ITS ASSAULT ON THE AMERICAN MIND.

Absolutely loved being part of the Black British Book Festival on Sunday! I chaired the 'Rooted in Resistance: Black Voices on Climate, Nature & Radical Futures' event. Such a joy talking to Selina Nwulu (author of Black Climates) and Joycelyn Longdon (author of Natural Connection).

So good meeting new friends at Saucy Books - London's first romance bookshop! Which is on point for Autumn 🍂 I love their high school inspired section. As teen activists prove in WE DON’T HAVE TIME FOR THIS, what's more romanic than saving the earth? 🌍❤️

BLUEBIRD SEASONS by Mary Taylor Young is this month’s climate story 🤩📖❤️ Mary’s story illustrates the 20 years of climate change impacts she witnessed from her family’s cabin in the Colorado Rockies. When I hiked the Colorado Trail, BLUEBIRD SEASONS answered one of my biggest questions.

So thrilled to be joining the Black British Book Festival, which is coming to the Barbican Centre in London on Sunday, 19th October! You can get your tickets at www.barbican.org.uk 🎟 Would love to see you there! #BlackBritishBookFestival

Leaning hard into September as I get back into writing. This morning’s peanut butter flavor: Mothernutter’s pumpkin spice 🎃🍁😋 Highly recommended! Any #peanutbutter recommendations for the new season? Hope your fall’s off to a good start! #writer #writing #climatefiction #loveisclimateaction

This month’s climate book is THE STORY OF MORE by Hope Jahren. We desperately need good climate stories. @realhopejahren.bsky.social’s explores how we got to climate change. And where we go from here? **Spoiler alert** Her answer - Use less and share more 🤩📖❤️

The recent G7 Summit and Bonn talks fell short of reaffirming commitments on gender equality and climate ambition. With the G20 Summit & COP30 coming up, leaders must deliver on pledges to support an inclusive & climate-resilient future. New blog: odi.org/en/insights/... @briannacraft.bsky.social

Happy birthday to WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS 🥳📖❤️ What a year! It’s been wonderful to share a climate story that acknowledges where we are and imagines a safer way forward. Thanks for being on this journey with me. #loveisclimateaction

THE SIXTH EXTINCTION by @elizkolbert.bsky.social is this month’s climate book 🤩📖 I love her take on “the truly extraordinary moment in which we live” - earth’s sixth mass extinction event. Her journey to understand the impacts being felt by the non-humans we share the world with is so well done ❤️

My latest @odi.global: As #G7 & #SB62 begin, we review their commitments on gender equality & climate action. G7: Strongest on gender inclusive, timebound pledges. UNFCCC: Most comprehensive on climate ambition. ❗ But without resources and political will, commitments won't be enough. Read more ⬇️

Loved spending Indie Bookstore Day at Frugal Books! Big thanks to everyone who came 🤩📖❤️ Showing up is so important, especially now when lots we care about is on the line. If you love stories that matter (like 👇🏾), buy them from your favorite bookstore! Indie Bookstore Day isn’t just for April 😉

MELTED AWAY is this month’s climate story. Thanks @barbaradrakevera.bsky.social for your memoir of climate change and caregiving in Peru ❤️📖 Each month of 2025, I’m gabbing about a climate book. We desperately need good climate stories. I’m happy to spread the word about ones that speak to me!

Can’t get over moments like this. Thank you Potter’s House! I walked into your wonderful bookstore and saw EVERYTHING THAT RISES proudly displayed. Which felt wonderful 🤩📖❤️ Thanks for celebrating my story and helping readers find it. #DC friends go grab a signed copy! #loveisclimateaction

For Earth Day, picking a story was easy. Thank you Christiana Figueres and Tom Rivett-Carnac for THE FUTURE WE CHOOSE 🌎📖❤️ Each month of 2025, I’m picking a climate book and gabbing about it. We desperately need good climate stories. And I’m happy to spread the word about ones that speak to me!

I stopped by today and they had a signing with @briannacraft.bsky.social !

Happy second birthday to EVERYTHING THAT RISES! So happy to celebrate some of the memoir's stars 🤩 My story in the UN climate negotiations began in 2011. I'm still awed by the grit of negotiators representing the Least Developed Countries.

Big snaps for Mikaela Loach author of IT’S NOT THAT RADICAL🫰🏾📖❤️ Each month of 2025, I’m picking a climate book and gabbing about it. We desperately need good climate stories. And I’m happy to spread the word about ones that speak to me! Thanks @mikaelaloach.bsky.social for your take on:

WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS is on Audible! Me, wanting to rave about Angel Pean's performance - well done! - and ultimately highlighting why acting is NOT part of my skill set. Notice my "varied" range of facial expressions 😳🤦🏾‍♀️ Happy listening! 🎧📖❤️ #loveisclimateaction

I really loved this book. I was expecting it to be good (it's Mary Annaïse Heglar!), but IMO it brought a new emotional (and intersectional) depth to areas of climate writing that I haven't seen explored much before now. Read it! And also, ask your local library to stock it so other people see it.

I love hearing from Black folks who love this planet who saw themselves in the pages of my novel!

I've never read a story like TROUBLED WATERS. As promised, each month of 2025, I’ll pick a climate book and gab about it. The world desperately needs good climate stories. I'm happy to share ones that speak to me. #loveisclimateaction #climatefiction #climatestories

As promised, each month of 2025, I’ll pick a climate book and gab about it. THE PETROLEUM PAPERS is the perfect starting place for this administration.

President Trump inspires me. Well, more accurately, by withdrawing the US from the Paris Agreement in 2017 - Trump pushed me over the edge. Research papers were no longer good enough. My writing needed a bigger audience.

Thinking of home as we near the holidays 🌲🤩 I so enjoyed the book chat hosted in my hometown by the Kelso Library in September! Massive thanks to everyone who came ❤️ I was lucky enough to grow-up with two libraries nearby. Shoutout to the Longview Library for hosting a wonderful book chat too!

“You write climate fiction? What do you read?” Unsurprisingly, a lot of books about climate change 😅Thought I’d pay tribute to some amazing authors who paved the way for my own blend of storytelling ❤️📖🤩 Thank you!

Thinking of friends and colleagues in the Least Developed Countries as the UN climate change negotiations enter the final days of #COP29. The Least Developed Countries represent 45 countries and 1.1 billion people. They've polluted the least yet suffer the deadliest impacts of the climate crisis.

Enjoyed being part of Penn State’s Policy & the Planet series 🌏 The lecture was NOT my most uplifting, but good to debrief the UN climate negotiations, COP29 expectations and the election impact 🇺🇸 And importantly, what this has to do with justice-focused climate stories? Spoiler - everything 💪🏾
