- Summary:
- ""Climate Courage" shows Americans that we can find common ground on solutions to climate change across the political divide through our shared American values"-- Provided by publisher.
- "More Americans care about climate change than we might think. But to unite across the political spectrum in pursuit of solutions, we need a new narrative based on a positive vision of the future. Climate Courage shows us how we can move past our collective inaction on climate change and work together in our communities to creat a more sustainable, just, clean energy-powered economy that works for everyone." -- Back cover.
