While it's clear that women and girls are vital voices and agents of change for this planet, they are too often missing from the proverbial "table." More than a problem of bias, it's a dynamic that sets us up for failure. To change everything, we need everyone. Discussion Questions This anthology shares lots of women's voices – what are some benefits of having many different authors in a book about the climate crisis? The writings in this book are in eight sections (root, advocate, reframe, reshape, persist, feel, nourish, and rise). How did the sequence of sections shape your experience as a reader? This anthology combines nonfiction stories and essays with poetry and visual art. How do you think the poetry and art adds to the book? Do you have a favorite poem? Are there any quotes from the stories or poems that resonated with you? Did you see yourself and your point of view in any of the writings in All We Can Save? If so, which essay, story, or poem really resonated? Has anything in this book seeded new ideas or plans for how you teach about climate change and solutions? The stories include emotions related to the climate crisis. How do you think we can process emotions related to climate change while also teaching the science and taking action on solutions? Are there any stories, essays, poems that you plan to share with students? How would you recommend educators use this book? Did the book help you move towards hope and away from despair? If so, how? Is there a climate solution in the book that inspired you? You can find over 60 fiction, non-fiction, and young-adult selections from past Book Clubs - with discussion questions! - in our Book Club Archive. There's something for everyone at the NOAA Planet Stewards Book Club: catch up on some knowledge, enjoy a quick fun read, or find a book to use with your students.    Sign up to the NOAA Planet Stewards email list to receive our bimonthly newsletter The Watch.
