Grassroots Rising is a
passionate call to action for the global body politic, providing
practical solutions for how to survive―and thrive―in catastrophic times.
Author Ronnie Cummins aims to educate and inspire citizens worldwide to
organize and become active participants in preventing ecological
collapse.
This book offers a blueprint for building and
supercharging a grassroots Regeneration Movement based on consumer
activism, farmer innovation, political change, and regenerative
finance―embodied most recently by the proposed Green New Deal in the US.
Cummins asserts that the solution lies right beneath our feet and at
the end of our forks through the transformation of our broken food
system. Using regenerative agriculture practices that restore our
agricultural and grazing lands, we can sequester massive amounts of
carbon in the soil. Coupled with an aggressive transition toward
renewables, he argues that we have the power to not only mitigate and
slow down climate change, but actually reverse global warming.
In synergy with the Sunrise Movement and the growing support of a Green New Deal, Grassroots Rising
will impact millions of conscious consumers, farmers, and the general
public during the crucial 2020 election year and beyond. This book shows
that a properly organized and executed Regeneration Revolution can
indeed offer realistic climate solutions while also meeting our everyday
needs.
If you’re wondering what you can do to help address the
global climate crisis, joining the Regeneration Revolution might be the
best first step.
“[Grassroots Rising] is a ‘good
news’ instructional book for Regeneration, a practical, shovel-ready
plan of action for the United States and the world to transition to
climate stability, peace, justice, health, prosperity, cooperation, and
participatory democracy.” ―Ronnie Cummins
