All of his picks since 2008, both summer reading lists and yearly round-ups.

Fictional stories. Real consequences. Profit > People is dedicated to books with capitalist critique, focusing on the lives - and bodies - sacrificed at the altar of industry and interest. Always taking recommendations!

Someone made a post about this and I thought it was a great list idea. I know I really need books that have more positivity and hope for the future, so hopefully this will help someone else too.

Let me know if I get anything wrong. Please comment recommendations!

"It is easier to imagine the end of the world than to imagine the end of capitalism"

But these books try anyway

Also see: Star Trek (TNG and DS9) but those aren't books

Inspired by Chelssicle’s list ‘The Cities We Deserve’. How might we build urban spaces that care for both people and the planet? Fic and nonfic.

Books to widen the possibilities of how we might save ourselves us from the worsening climate crisis by recognizing and learning from the queerness already represented in nature

A lil collection of books that envisions collective futures that are vibrant with life, as well as the actions, policies, and technologies that make them real. A good mixture of fiction and non-fiction!

All solarpunk should be anti-capitalist, anti-colonial, and anti-imperialist.

Books that are set in worlds that are either in the midst of facing world ending catastrophes or shortly there after. This list focuses on books that show how humans evolve and survive given the new circumstances they're in.

As always, open to suggestions for additions to the list! 🙂

Fiction that deals with climate change. Books may take place in the world as we know it, in the near future, or in fictional worlds experiencing climate change.

Just a little hope for when it all feels too hard. Will add recs as they come - lemme know what needs to be added!

Books that made it from the bookstore to my home library! Many are queer, but not all

Books about new and ancient ideas to create sustainable change or something near to it...

The SciFri Book Club, created by the people who bring you the weekly public radio show Science Friday, is a program to bring people together around all things science reading—anything from sci-fi short stories to nonfiction science books to science articles from various publications to science-y poetry!

All the books we are reading in the Stockholm Resilience Centre sci-fi book club!

"Another storm brewing; I hear it sing i’ th’ wind. Yond same black cloud, yond huge one, looks like a foul bombard that would shed his liquor. If it should thunder as it did before, I know not where to hide my head. Yond same cloud cannot choose but fall by pailfuls." – The Tempest, 2.2.18. This list is inspired by the terrifyingly beautiful intensity of nature at its most extreme. This is the fiction edition of this subject. Recommendations always welcome!
