'This book is a wake-up call for the environmental movement. It shows conclusively that women's empowerment is essential to achieving environmental sustainability. This has been a blind-spot for us for far too long. Under my leadership, I am determined that Friends of the Earth will take this issue seriously, build campaigning alliances with women's groups and mainstream gender equality throughout our work.' Craig Bennett, CEO of Friends of the Earth 'As we look to address the greatest challenge humankind has ever faced, we do so with one of the greatest possible resources: womankind... Empowering the next generation of women leaders is a concrete step towards securing a bright, sustainable future for all. Through this book, we are seeking to share the wisdom of a pioneering generation of women leaders with the leaders to come.' Anne Hidalgo, Mayor of Paris, from the Foreword 'If women are given equal opportunities to contribute to the global condition we will be able to create a safer, more just and more prosperous world. Universal wellbeing created by universal participation.' Christiana Figueres, Architect of the Paris Climate Agreement 'Climate action offers the opportunity to transform social and economic development for the better. We must take this opportunity to elevate women and girls as equals in a stable and sustainable society marked by lasting peace and prosperity. That is how women will save the planet.' Patricia Espinosa, Executive Secretary, United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change 'You can't save the planet without equality ... We need a new economics informed by the larger picture, an economy that puts women and the Earth at the centre.' Vandana Shiva 'Hope is a potent catalyst. And while our failure to adequately appreciate and guard against ecological destruction fills me with frustration, my hope is not meek or weak. It is urgent and raging. It's a hope that believes a better world - away from cyclical war, the annihilation of the earth's treasures and the grinding down of the poor - is possible.' Caroline Lucas MP Praise for the First Edition: '...this book is relevant to a wide audience (arguably everyone): to inform our understanding of discrimination against women, and to provide inspiring insight and encouragement into opportunities for achieving not only gender equality but environmental sustainability too.' Environment and Urbanization, "This book contains a wealth of information that will be useful to many readers looking for an overview on the diversity of perspectives on gender and climate change." -- Women's Budget Group "There couldn't be a clearer example of how important it is to recognise the intersectionality of the issues we're facing." -- Peace News "The essays in this book make the case for women's empowerment for climate action and the powerful change it can bring." -- Stylist "...this book is relevant to a wide audience (arguably everyone): to inform our understanding of discrimination against women, and to provide inspiring insight and encouragement into opportunities for achieving not only gender equality but environmental sustainability too." -- Praise for the First Edition, Environment and Urbanization "Provides a depth and breadth of diverse perspectives to answer yes to the question: "Could women's empowerment transform the chances of achieving environmental sustainability?"." -- Local Environment "As we look to address the greatest challenge humankind has ever faced, we do so with one of the greatest possible resources: womankind...
