Little Book of Big Change
25 Inspirational Women Fighting Climate Change
Little Book of Big Change celebrates 25 inspiring female and nonbinary climate leaders from 17 countries. The book is based on interviews with scientists, activists, politicians, CEOs, and even Paralympian athletes who are combatting the climate crisis in their communities. Despite facing disproportionate impacts and systemic barriers as women (and particularly women of color, disabled, non-binary, and trans women), these leaders demonstrate that individual actions can create significant positive change. From Christiana Figueres to Xiye Bastida, the book highlights their achievements, challenges, and aspirations, inspiring readers to join the movement and make a difference.
