Bringing together interdisciplinary climate change scholarship and grassroots activism, this book considers the possibilities of planetary justice across human difference, generations, species and the concept of life and non-life. Writing amidst bushfires, cyclones, global climate strikes and a global pandemic, contributors from the Earth Unbound Collective share stories from India, Australia, Canada and Scotland. Chapters draw on Indigenous, Black, Southern, ecosocialist and ecofeminist perspectives to call for more radical and interconnected ideas of justice and solidarity.

This accessible book features diverse voices that speak with the planet in the face of climate change, biodiversity loss and extinction. It explores the politics and practices of working towards a future where the planet thrives.

Reviews for Planetary Justice: Stories and Studies of Action, Resistance and Solidarity

“This fascinating book explores knowledge regimes and ways of being centred on planetary justice. Through case studies and lived experiences, the orientation is of critical reflection, of intimate stories and ancient obligations, of solidarity and comradeship. A must-read.” Rob White, University of Tasmania (Emeritus) “Planetary Justice offers essential reading about solidarity and justice, bringing together voices from diverse contexts to provide critical, grounded and generative responses to confront global climate, environmental and social injustices.” Farhana Sultana, Syracuse University “This book is essential reading. It amplifies voices of struggle, urging us to collectivize solidarity and resistance for planetary justice.” Andrea Valdivia, Universidad de Chile
