Why people recommend it
What If We Get It Right? Visions of Climate Futures by Ayana Elizabeth Johnson is a collection of conversations and essays that explores hopeful, actionable, and constructive pathways for addressing the global climate crisis. When Jigar Shah appeared as a guest on The Ezra Klein Show for an episode titled Yes, Biden's Green Future Can Still Happen Under Trump, he joined host Ezra Klein to discuss environmental policy and the future of clean energy. Toward the conclusion of the conversation, Shah offered recommendations for books that offer productive perspectives on climate solutions. He highlighted Ayana Elizabeth Johnson's book as his second recommendation, praising the author directly during the broadcast. Shah described Johnson as an exceptionally inspiring person whose work provides a welcome and encouraging outlook on tackling environmental challenges. By recommending the book, Shah sought to steer listeners toward a hopeful narrative about climate action, emphasizing the importance of visionary yet practical approaches to building a sustainable future rather than succumbing entirely to despair regarding the global ecological crisis.
