“By articulating the three spheres of transformative change, Leichenko and O’Brien provide concerned people, students, and teachers a lexicon to practice climate action. They personalise the grand challenge of climate change by providing examples of transformative experiments at individual and community scales. This note of practical optimism is one of the key strengths of the book.

In Climate and Society, Leichenko and O’Brien provide interdisciplinary and critical researchers and practitioners a thoughtful and reflective pedagogical tool that skilfully manoeuvres the latest climate science and articulates future pathways for personal and societal action. In an age of growing despair, it is an evidence-based book of hope.”
