“How can we stop the world from burning? For many years, I responded to that question as an environmental advocate,” said author Manisha Bapna for Orion<\/p>\n

“In our fight against climate change, my colleagues and I employ hard-edged tools such as legislation, policy, and litigation\u2014all informed by science and real-world impacts on people and nature. But as the Anthropocene accelerates and our time runs out to set the world on a more sustainable and equitable course, I have come to recognize that these tools alone cannot change the world fast enough to save it.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\n“This new world we inhabit, the Anthropocene, is hard to fathom. The speed and scale of change are disorienting. The stakes are now too high to ignore. The future of humanity\u2014and all life on Earth\u2014is in our hands. We need to reset our relationship with nature\u2014so that we appreciate it for its intrinsic value, as well as its connection to our health, economy, and communities.<\/p>\n

In recent years, progressive organizations of all kinds have come closer together, realizing that the problems we work to solve intersect and compound. Collaboration increases our odds of success.<\/p>\n

The same is true across disciplines: poets and scientists, essayists and environmental lawyers, storytellers and policy experts. Working together, we stand a better chance of steering away from catastrophe in the Anthropocene and toward the light.”<\/p>\n
