CoMING  SOON...

Throughout 2024 I have had the privilege of coordinating this book project, which has taken the form of a collection of short personal essays from scientists who have become activists. One of my roles in the project has been to work with scientists to tell their unique stories in compelling, and sometimes emotionally vulnerable, ways - something that often doesn't come naturally to us!  

We hope that amongst the twenty voices in in the book (mine included) there will be words, feelings and moments that resonate with anyone who reads it - whether you consider yourself a scientist or not.  I've certainly felt inspired and empowered by the journeys from knowing to acting that I've had the honour of immersing myself in this past year! 

With huge thanks to my fellow coordinators Dr Caroline Vincent & Dr Viola Ross-Smith, to our publishers O'Mara Books and to all who have otherwise contributed to the project, I'm delighted to share that the book is due to be published on March 27th 2025, priced under £10. It is available to pre-order here.

"Abi's 'Climate & Nature Questions' workshop at our 2024 conference was very successful and we received lots of positive feedback.  We feel that Abi's ability to communicate the science of the climate emergency in a relevant and accessible manner is a real gift, and we look forward to working together again in the future." - Fran Taylor, ACT Now Eco Conference
