"This book goes beyond the usual poetic eulogies for a dying planet
to transform the anarchist slogan 'direct action speaks louder than
words' into a concrete blueprint for a resistance movement now! If
Deep Green Resistance does not inspire its reader to political
action, then nothing will." —Ann Handsen, author of Direct Action:
Memoirs of an Urban Guerilla
"With clear, sober analysis, and facts that include the reality of
runaway global climate change and that of 200 species being made
extinct every day, the severity and urgency of our collective
crisis is laid bare. Deep Green Resistance then asks, 'Do we want
to feel better or do we want to be effective?'" —Dahr Jamail,
author of The End of Ice
"Deep Green Resistance posits, I fear correctly, that
resistance will have to become more militant and perhaps even
resort to physical acts of confrontation with the corporate
leviathan." —Chris Hedges, author of War Is a Force That Gives
Us Meaning
