What They're Saying

Critics Review

‘Guides us beyond the greenwashing of the arsonist state, towards the regenerative agency of local communities. Gelderloos demonstrates how we have the means at hand to extinguish the blaze and reset our wayward course towards a more livable and just planet for all’

– Simon Springer, author of ‘The Anarchist Roots of Geography’

‘Few books are as honest, inclusive and based on so much experience of committed social and ecological struggle. The Solutions Are Already Here opens doorways to a world so many young activists want to know and understand, and reminds so many more that now is the time to act’

– Dr. Alexander Dunlap, Centre for Development & the Environment, University of Oslo
