Frontlines : stories of global environmental justice

Every unpacked frontline is one cutting edge of an economic system and political ideology that is destroying life on earth.

Revealing our ecosystems to be under a sustained attack, Nick Meynen finds causes for hope in unconventional places. 'In his wide-ranging journalism and writing, Nick Meynen has been vividly mapping struggles for justice around the world.

His new book is a rich collection of the human stories of those struggles, from resistance to mining in India and Greece, to land grabbing in Uganda, to a landmark climate lawsuit in the Netherlands.

The book harnesses the power of lived experience to bring our most urgent, high-stakes policy debates to life, and it deserves a wide international audience.' Naomi Klein, author of The Shock Doctrine and This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. the Climate
