Cities across the globe are growing fast. Today many cities are simply unsustainable, with polluted air, excessive energy consumption and an absence of nature. But big cities don't have to mean a dystopian future., They can be turned around to be powerhouses of wellbeing and environmental sustainability - if we empower women. C40 Cities - a global network of the largest and greenest cities across the planet - is leading the world delivering practical environmental changes right now. The mayors and city leaders of C40 are committed to make cities good for people and the planet., To help realise this, they have launched Women4Climate, an initiative to promote and support women as climate leaders. This book is a unique collaboration between C40 and Friends of the Earth showcasing pioneering city mayors, key voices in the environmental and feminist movements, and academics. The articles and interviews collectively demonstrate both the need for women's empowerment for climate action and the powerful change it can bring., Think of it as a rallying call - for the planet, for women, for everyone.

Críticas
'An inspiring call to action' Liz Hutchins, Campaigns Director, Friends of the Earth `As we look to address the greatest challenge humankind has ever faced, we do so with one of the greatest possible resources: womankind... Empowering the next generation of women leaders is a concrete step towards securing a bright, sustainable future for all. Through this book, we are seeking to share the wisdom of a pioneering generation of women leaders with the leaders to come.' Anne Hidalgo, Mayor of Paris, from the Foreword `If women are given equal opportunities to contribute to the global condition we will be able to create a safer, more just and more prosperous world. Universal wellbeing created by universal participation.' Christiana Figueres, Architect of the Paris Climate Agreement `Climate action offers the opportunity to transform social and economic development for the better. We must take this opportunity to elevate women and girls as equals in a stable and sustainable society marked by lasting peace and prosperity. That is how women will save the planet.' Patricia Espinosa, Executive Secretary, United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change `You can't save the planet without equality ... We need a new economics informed by the larger picture, an economy that puts women and the Earth at the centre.' Vandana Shiva `Hope is a potent catalyst. And while our failure to adequately appreciate and guard against ecological destruction fills me with frustration, my hope is not meek or weak. It is urgent and raging. It's a hope that believes a better world - away from cyclical war, the annihilation of the earth's treasures and the grinding down of the poor - is possible.' Caroline Lucas MP 'Provides a depth and breadth of diverse perspectives to answer yes to the question: "Could women's empowerment transform the chances of achieving environmental sustainability?".' Local Environment Praise for the First Edition: 'A wake-up call for the environmental movement' Craig Bennett, CEO of Friends of the Earth '...this book is relevant to a wide audience (arguably everyone): to inform our understanding of discrimination against women, and to provide inspiring insight and encouragement into opportunities for achieving not only gender equality but environmental sustainability too.'
