Synopsis

"Erickson's ability to connect climate science, copious data, and public policies with the lived experiences of people and other creatures sets this book apart. His emphasis on humane and caring methods reminds readers that winning hearts and minds is a prerequisite to capturing carbon. An inspired synthesis of environmental, cultural, economic, and political calls to action."
— Kirkus Reviews

"An exceptionally well and persuasively written clarion call to personal and collective action... Unreservedly and urgently recommended."
— Midwest Book Review

"I wanted to know more about this forward-looking, insightful, and highly inspirational work. Gladly, Erickson was able to answer a few questions about his landmark book."
— Marc Bekoff Ph.D. Psychology Today

"The ambitious book's five chapters highlight compassionate approaches toward animals, self, the land, community, and democracy. Erickson's writing displays passion, clarity, and a grasp of every topic he tackles."
— Kirkus Reviews

In this "save-the-planet" book, Stephen Erickson introduces you to exquisite creatures, human and non-human. The challenges they face reveal the immensity of the threat facing each of us — and its urgency. Global warming now threatens human extinction before century's end. There is a climate Arch-Villain and we have just one solution. Five Compassions are our path to achieving this solution.

Four esteemed thought leaders have contributed three new short essays, photos, and a poem:

*Wendell Berry - farmer, author, national treasure
*Joel Fuhrman, MD - author of 7 New York Times bestsellers including 'Eat to Live' and 'The End of Diabetes'
*Alan Lewis - guides Food and Agriculture Policy for Natural Grocers supermarkets
*Jo-Anne McArthur - investigative photojournalist

More than a "call-to-action" book, this is a book with a plan. Join us in what will become humanity's most important cause to date.
