Natural Connection

A University of Cambridge environment & AI academic, and social media climate educator (@ClimateInColour)'s passionate argument for how ordinary people of colour doing extraordinary things can pave the way towards a better future for us all.

A lyrical, deeply researched and original work of narrative non-fiction that examines 6 key pillars- RAGE, IMAGINATION, INNOVATION, THEORY, HEALING and CARE to showcase the wonder of the natural world and inspire us to view climate action as a shared goal rather than individual burden.

University of Cambridge AI, environmental justice and biocaousters researcher and educator Joycelyn Longdon reveals how extraordinary acts from ordinary people of colour - from the US to the UK, Brazil to Iran, Ghana to Ethiopia - paved the way for today's technological advances. Merging ancient wisdom with modern tools, she invites readers to embrace new roles in the fight for sustainability beyond the activist and observer binary, guiding us back to our roots.
