The New Climate War: The Fight to Take Back Our Planet
Michael E. Mann
If however you are willing to consider the perspectives of three who’ve spent nearly every day of their lives for decades fighting for a better future, check our Christiana’s book Future We Choose, my book Saving Us, and @MichaelEMann’s New Climate War. You won’t regret it.

Sand Talk: How Indigenous Thinking Can Save the World
Tyson Yunkaporta
@NickLaparra That is tough! Top of my head I would cast my vote for @naominovik’s Scholomance series for fiction and Tyson Yunkaporta’s Sand Talk / @KatecBowler’s No Cure for Being Human for nonfiction. That is my personal taste, though; there are so many good ones! You?

Global Warming
John T. Houghton
@sjvouilloz Sounds like you need an intro text on the physics of planetary atmospheres. Two classics I recommend are “Global Warming: The Complete Briefing” by John Houghton and “atmospheric chemistry and physics from air pollution to climate change“ originally by Seinfeld now updated.

Doughnut Economics: Seven Ways to Think Like a 21st-Century Economist
Kate Raworth
@bajando_el_pico To be fair, if you are looking for a good discussion of long-term solutions I'd recommend Kate Raworth's Doughnut Economics. My book is about how to kick-start action now, ASAP, within the system we have: and how, by doing so, we will eventually change the system itself.

Electrify: An Optimist's Playbook for Our Clean Energy Future
Saul Griffith
PS. I should add that if we listen to Saul Griffith and "electrify everything," then electricity would make up a much larger share of our total power use and the contribution of nuclear fusion would be proportionally greater! https://t.co/1HWxPuXPs0

The Evangelicals: The Struggle to Shape America
Frances Fitzgerald
@signsaresaying @barbetta1 @johnvoelcker @growthbusters @NAEvangelicals The best book I have read on the evolution of evangelicals and politics in America is called “the scandal of the evangelical mind” by Notre Dame historian Mark Noll. I recommend pairing it with The Evangelicals by Frances Fitzgerald. Together they explain so much.

Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation
Kristin Kobes Du Mez
So enjoyed catching @kkdumez in person speaking about her book, “Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation”. Highly recommended if you want to understand the influence of patriarchy and militarism on religion in 🇺🇸 https://t.co/5jNm8iEM5X
