About this title

Synopsis

In How to Weather Together, Astrida Neimanis and Jennifer Mae Hamilton develop an innovative model for climate change mitigation and adaptation that brings together climate justice and community engagement. Translating feminist theory into practice, they demonstrate how we can gradually change the world as the world changes us.

Drawing on a rich and varied history of feminist, queer and anticolonial scholarship, Neimanis and Hamilton propose 'weathering' as both a theoretical framework and a set of practical tools for responding to environmental catastrophe. They ask how we can reckon with existential crisis through playful, low-tech practice by connecting the planetary to the personal.
With photographs and a series of illustrated weathering activities throughout, the book turns academic concepts into practical, hands-on guidance for community groups, artists, students, researchers, and others. It shows how climate adaptation requires building better social infrastructures for our shared but different worlds.
