John Moorhead-Guinea
When climate solutions researcher and advocate John Moorhead-Guinea loses his eldest son Alex in a climbing accident, made more likely by human-induced climate change, he is devastated. This book offers his meditations on love and grief for his son and the polluted planet we inhabit and can bring back to equilibrium.Composed as letters to Alex, this deeply personal book traces both universal themes of human relationships to nature, juxtaposed with the intimacy felt by a father for his beloved child. Drawing inspiration from Alex’s life and love of the mountains, Moorhead-Guinea’s tender manifesto reframes the argument for urgent behaviour change to one of love, for yourself, your family, and the planet.---ALL BOOK PROCEEDS GO TO GRASSROOTS NETWORK FOR CLIMATE JUSTICE (GNCJ)--- The GNCJ is a funding and knowledge exchange platform.
