Produktbeschreibung
Be a Climate Warrior is an information-driven, nonfiction book about climate change and American society. It is a motivational climate change toolkit that provides individuals guidance on how to contribute to broader climate initiatives while reducing their own carbon footprints. The book casts a blacklight over one's life and their connection to society, illuminating the carbon-scrubbing opportunities that lurk everywhere.

The book contains two primary elements. Half of the chapters include excerpts and stories that are designed to empower individuals to establish broader roles in the climate battle. Some of these excerpts and stories are, for example, an introduction to the physical scale of the Earth's climate system and society's emissions, a toolkit for communicating with climate deniers, a story about the corruption within Missouri state government and the implications for the coal industry in the United States, and a message from a centenarian who is a lifelong environmentalist and historian.

The other chapters present 30 recommended actions that contain practical advice for how the average American can reduce their individual carbon footprint by roughly 40%. These 30 recommended actions are the detailed version of the 30 actions on the website CarbonCurb.com, where you can use the online carbon footprint calculator to calculate your unique personal emissions and interactively reduce them. As part of your climate toolkit, the website makes this book more interactive.

Overall, Be a Climate Warrior delivers a broader message inspiring the reader to interface with society for the benefit of our climate. You can embark on the journey of becoming a climate warrior by altering your lifestyle, confronting corporations, and becoming more politically engaged. Small steps, smaller footprints. We're all in this together.

Autorenporträt
Eric Wright was born and raised in the great city of Detroit but is now a native of Pontiac, Michigan. He is the oldest of five siblings and also a published author. Before re-discovering his passion for writing, he was a restaurant manager and then became a chef. He was also a local deejay, playing in major events throughout the state of Michigan. At a very early age, he had a passion for writing-telling fictional stories that seemed to be very real. Known for writing short stories, many followers suggested that he should create a complete book, and that's what he did. Now he's here not only to write for his followers of his street tales, but to share his urban, fictional stories with the whole world.His secret to writing that first project was a little different. Whenever he became stuck on a chapter and needed new ideas, he listened to certain music that told stories of sex, love, and terrible relationships. He also began to follow a few people on social media. He started looking into their eyes and every facial expression on each of their posts. He believes that eyes create their own stories. These women became his actresses in the story. This writing tactic worked best for him, he admits.Shannon, Erica, Cynthia, and Rhonda-thank you for playing your roles in that particular story.Now, with his second book, A Letter to Jacqueline: My Detroit Childhood Memoirs, Eric takes a powerful step away from fiction and steps boldly into truth. This deeply personal memoir explores his upbringing in one of Detroit's most unpredictable and emotionally complex environments-Dumbarton Street and The Smith Homes Housing Projects on the city's Northwest side. Through raw recollections and vivid storytelling, he sheds light on the people, places, and pain that shaped his youth.Unlike his debut, this project wasn't built on imagination-it was built on memories. A Letter to Jacqueline is a heartfelt tribute to a mother's influence, a young boy's struggles, and the life lessons that often come the hard way. Eric opens up about moments of love and loss, joy and trauma, faith and failure. He speaks candidly about surviving poverty, broken systems, and the ever-present sting of racism-a reality he faced growing up as a Black child in a divided city.This memoir goes beyond personal reflection-it challenges the current generation to consider what's being lost. Through his lens, Eric shares what children today are missing: the structure, discipline, and community that once held neighborhoods together. He speaks directly to young people and their parents, reflecting on how the values that shaped his survival have slowly faded from view.Woven through it all is a sharp awareness of the strange world of politics-both local and national-that quietly shaped the backdrop of his upbringing. From the policies that failed his community to the silent forces that widened the gaps, Eric doesn't shy away from the hard truths.This memoir isn't just a personal account-it's a blueprint for survival, a time capsule of Detroit through the '60s, '70s, '80s, and early '90s, and a reminder of the unbreakable bond between a mother and her child-a closeness that shapes you forever and teaches you that in this life, you only get one.
