Planet & Pages
Join us as we read both non-fiction and fiction books about climate change. Together we will explore topics such as global warming, plastic pollution, environmental equity, and the proposed solutions to combat their effects. We will use “Cli-Fi” books to balance science with the human experience for a rounded understanding, and hopefully provide comfort and active purpose to build the future we want.
Meets at Charlotte and William Bloomberg Medford Public Library. Session Recaps can be found at the bottom of this page.

Told in four parts—power, water, light, and time—The Light Pirate mirrors the rhythms of the elements and the sometimes quick, sometimes slow dissolution of the world as we know it. It is a meditation on the changes we would rather not see, the future we would rather not greet, and a call back to the beauty and violence of an untamable wilderness.

Sometimes the bravest thing we can do while facing an existential crisis is imagine life on the other side. This provocative and joyous book maps an inspiring landscape of possible climate futures.
With clear-eyed essays, vibrant interviews, data, poetry, and art, Ayana guides us through solutions and possibilities at the nexus of science, policy, culture, and justice.
