Resilient Shores: Adapting to Climate Change Through Storytelling
This book uses a fictional but realistic story of a coastal community relocating in the face of climate risk to illustrate how to make climate conversations happen, what those conversations can look like, and how to move from discussion to action. The book targets those who may feel that climate risks are nearly impossible to discuss, let alone achieve.
