'Everyone should read this book' - George Monbiot 'A compelling read for anyone who cares about all lives on our planet' - Tanya Steele CBE, CEO of WWF UK

In this extraordinary and hopeful book,

leading environmentalist Tony Juniper

CBE identifies the real problem at the

heart of the climate and nature crises.

From soil loss to wildfires, degraded rivers, mass

migration and conflict, the environmental crisis

is already here — and it’s set to get much worse.

While billionaires build remote bunkers and make

plans for colonies on Mars, climate collapse impacts

the most vulnerable among us first and hardest.

But what this radical and ground-breaking book

proves is that inequality isn’t just about who suffers

the consequences, it is the main obstacle blocking

action – and it has been for decades.

How can people lead good lives without

ultimately hastening global collapse? The answer

lies in fairness. We can’t fight the climate and

nature crises without addressing the ever-widening

gaps between the rich and poor, the powerful and

the weak. Drawing upon more than 40 years of

experience in research, practical work, campaigning

and advocacy, combined with interviews with

globally renowned experts, in Just Earth Tony

Juniper reveals the system shifts needed to achieve

real, lasting change.

Reviews for Just Earth: How a Fairer World Will Save the Planet

Tony Juniper, as usual, has called this right. He explores a crucial issue with verve and style. Everyone should read this book. -- George Monbiot, author of 'Regenesis' and 'The Invisible Doctrine' Remarkably well researched, well written and well balanced… nevertheless optimistic about the way forward. -- Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett, authors of 'The Spirit Level' Remarkable, insightful and timely. Juniper sets out an agenda for a just transition and action at all levels. -- Jake Fiennes, author of 'Land Healer' A compelling read for anyone who cares about all lives on our planet. Tony provides a clear-eyed view of how we got here and what we need to do next. -- Tanya Steele CBE, CEO of WWF UK Based on decades of experience and curated expertise, this book will convert you to the urgent need for a just transition to a better world, where nature and our own species recover together. It also makes clear that we have no other choice. Read it and act. -- Beccy Speight, CEO of RSPB At long last! Just Earth is the book that the environmental debate has been missing for decades… it is truthful and robust whilst also being entertaining and hopeful. This is a cracking book, that must set the agenda for the years to come. -- Craig Bennett, leading environmentalist and CEO of The Wildlife Trusts Just Earth powerfully reminds us that social justice and environmental sustainability are indeed two sides of the same precious coin. -- Jonathon Porritt CBE, author of 'Hope in Hell' A deeply personal account of his own developing understanding that justice for nature cannot be won without justice for people. It’s a great read. -- Tom Burke CBE, co-founder of E3G
