SUMMARY:Climate Cafe (Central Library)
DESCRIPTION:Are you worried or concerned about climate change? Does the climate crisis make you anxious? Want to take local climate action but don’t know how or where? \nJoin our Climate Café at BPL to discuss everything related to the climate crisis (including how it makes you feel). Whether you’re a concerned New Yorker\, an activist\, or just curious about the topic\, this community-organized space is for you. According to Force of Nature\, as 70% of young people feel climate anxiety and 56% believe humanity is doomed\, we urgently need spaces to navigate our climate emotions and translate them into action. \nCome and have open and meaningful conversations about the climate crisis; share your ideas\, listen to inspiring talks\, learn about local initiatives and emotional resilience tools and connect with like-minded individuals. Join us to become a part of a network of thousands of activists and concerned individuals through climate cafés worldwide. \nThe 2025 BPL Climate Café Series intends to focus on linking climate concern and anxiety to local action\, exploring technologies\, innovations and initiatives for climate action in the broad sense. Stay tuned for our seasonal topic climate cafes: \nWINTER Session: Our homes\, our neighborhoods – A discussion on how buildings\, homes\, and neighborhoods contribute to and are affected by the climate crisis. What can we do about it? \nPlease register here to help us better prepare for the Climate Café. \nThis Climate Café will be offered by BPL’s Climate Café host and Force of Nature community member\, Marilynn H. C. Force of Nature is a world community dedicated to turning climate anxiety into action and working with leaders to drive intergenerational solutions.

SUMMARY:A Book Talk: The Sustainability Class
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a book talk with authors Vijay Kolinjivadi and Aaron Vansintjan as they discuss their newest book The Sustainability Class.\n\nMore than ever\, urban residents want to be green\, yet to cater to their interests\, a green-tech service economy has sprung up\, co-opting well-intentioned concerns over sustainability to sell a resource-heavy and exclusive “lifestyle environmentalism.” This has made cities more unsustainable and inaccessible to the working class. The Sustainability Class explores\, with biting humor\, how investors around the world are rushing to capitalize on going green. By contrast\, real-world examples of movements for housing and food production\, transport\, and waste management demonstrate how ordinary people are building a more ecological future by working together\, against all odds. In doing so\, they show us how sustainability can be reclaimed for everyone. Sustainability isn’t about vibes and superficial green facades. It’s about building people power to reimagine the world.\n\n“A scathing critique. . . . Readers will come away more savvy and empowered.”\n—Publishers Weekly (starred review)”A powerful challenge to a way of thinking that has turned sustainability into a virtue-signaling lifestyle.”\n—Kirkus Reviews\n\nAbout the Authors\n\n\nVijay Kolinjivadi is an assistant professor at the School for Community and Public Affairs\, Concordia University in Montreal\, Canada. He is also a co-editor of the website Uneven Earth. He has been published in Al Jazeera\, New Internationalist\, Truthout\, and The Conversation. \n \nAaron Vansintjan is Policy Manager at Food Secure Canada and the founder and co-editor of Uneven Earth and co-author of The Future Is Degrowth. He has been published in The Guardian\, Truthout\, openDemocracy\, and The Ecologist.
