Cool Petaluma Book Club
Our book for August, Compassion in Crisis, dives in to the question: how do we live in the age of disaster? In this updated and expanded guide to collective crisis preparedness, Kailea and Kate, organizers and coeditors for the book and magazine publisher Loam, share community-shaped strategies on how to practically navigate the challenges posed by overlapping catastrophes--be they environmental, economic, political, or otherwise.
Compassion in Crisis: Building Disaster-Resilient Communities
Help is here for our bodies, hearts, minds, and shared homes. By amplifying resources for resilience, the authors underscore preparedness as a constant, communal practice. They offer inspiration from frontline organizers who help their communities prepare for emergencies, demonstrate how to envision probable futures after upheaval, and showcase people-powered projects that nurture collective regeneration.
This is your invitation into the lifelong work of caring for our Earth and one another as we all find our way through the polycrisis.
