UVM’s Brian Tokar reviews Against Doom

Jeremy Brecher’s Against Doom presents the most lucid, step-by-step strategic vision for the climate movement that we have seen thus far. The various steps to achieve relief from climate chaos are presented in a well-researched, systematic, concise, and highly readable manner, drawing upon the latest findings in climate science, public opinion research, and the experiences of on-the-ground activists.  Most important, the book offers a realistic and hopeful outlook for the future. At a time when movements for climate action can often appear stuck in a seemingly endless sweep of defensive battles, Brecher offers a forward-looking blueprint for getting unstuck and preserving our fundamental right to a livable planet.
