Description

This timely parenting guide offers essential advice on addressing the uncertainties of the climate crisis while keeping kids informed, engaged, and hopeful. It provides practical steps families can take together to help protect the planet.

Today’s children are witnessing the effects of climate change firsthand—wildfire smoke forcing summer camps to close, beach erosion restricting access to favorite shorelines, and extreme heat keeping recess indoors. Parents are faced with difficult questions: How do we help kids process these changes? How can we prevent them—and ourselves—from feeling overwhelmed?

Environmental journalist and parent Bridget Shirvell offers a thoughtful handbook to guide parents through these challenges. Drawing on insights from climate experts, environmental advocates, child psychologists, and families from across the country, she provides strategies for answering tough questions about how we got here and raising children who feel connected to nature, make environmentally responsible choices, and take action to address the climate crisis. This book empowers parents to foster a sense of agency in their children—helping them become engaged stewards of the planet and inspiring them to push for real change.
