Regeneration: Achieving Climate Resilience in a Single Generation

Steve Zarkovic: Good quality book, nice paper, nice pictures and a decent size. Purchased it for a gift for a friend of mine who is into climate activism and he seems to have enjoyed it, or he's just being polite. Either way it makes a great gift or hopefully a good read as well.

Rachel: A great way to get data-driven, in-depth yet concise approaches to ending the climate crisis utilizing a regenerative mindset and practices. All delivered in a practical “case study” sort of format. Flip open to almost any page and find a place to begin to learn about a new story and method to regenerate our planet. A pathway and friend of a book for those who are awake…

Deborah L. Garner: Love the content. So true to our needs. But the binding was not good and sections have fallen out of the book.

Kris Abrahamson: I learned so much from Drawdown (2017), which outlines 100 feasible strategies to "drawing down" carbon emissions, that I decided to buy this book. Regeneration is sort of a sequel, but its focus is much broader and even more inspiring. In this book, Hawken focuses on "regeneration" -- to create or generate anew. Hawken explains the ecological importance of oceans, forests, wild areas, and land masses and interconnectedness of all of these things. In clear and straightforward way Hawken explains the science behind biodiversity and how it can help to save the planet. I gained a much greater understanding of how ecosystems work naturally to sequester carbon and keep nature in balance. Hawken also explains how people, cities, food, energy and industry could be created anew to reduce the damage to the environment and stop climate change. Well worth reading!

Sarah Louise: This book has not only let me know much of what I need to know about the world at present, but also evaluate what I can do.

Regeneration is informative, for sure, and (thankfully) much more than that. It weaves together themes of reverence, hope, empowerment and joy, as it walks you through many hard-to-look at realities. Among many many other things, it tells healing stories about what people are doing to help provide education and healthy food to other humans, people who are working to preserve our oceans, and people who are working to provide habitat to wildlife.

As a homeschooling parent of young children, I intend to incorporate the wisdom of this book into family life and teaching. This morning I sat down with my children, and, when our science lesson called for learning about food, I taught them nutrition from the food section of this book, and when the rain started coming down and turned to hail, we spoke about the water cycle and how microbes in the air (which come from the plants) contribute to the precipitation that falls.

In its spirit of hope and empowerment, the book has motivated me to take action by declining to purchase food items that come in...

Anodea Judith: This book should be required reading for every citizen in the world, certainly for every politician, teacher, environmentalist and student. Concisely written and beautifully composed, this book brings science to system after system in nature, society, and more to demonstrate nature's amazing ability to regenerate itself -- when we do the right thing.

There is no bigger threat to our future than climate change, and this book espouses natural solutions that address climate in more ways than just restricting carbon emissions -- even though the author clearly states we have to do that as well.

But while that is going to take time, given the current reluctance to take the extreme measures necessary, drawing carbon down and working with nature's natural systems, can be another way to address the damage we are causing. But more than just sustainability, regeneration shows how everything actually gets immensely better when we work with nature and her natural healing properties.

I read this book cover to cover and was sorry when I got to the end that it didn't go on longer. The research shows in each ecosystem niche 1) how we have harmed that niche 2) what's being done...
