About the Book

How do you win a war against climate change? In Nature's Ally, Earth's best activists find the strategy to change our future.

Book Synopsis

"A must-read for anyone who recognizes that we're in a climate crisis." - Ted Danson

Don't just watch the world change, learn how to change it.

In 1984, Robert Sulnick stepped into the toxic smoke of the Bhopal gas disaster. It was a moment that changed his life-and the course of environmental law-forever.

Nature's Ally is the gripping firsthand account of a lifetime spent defending our planet. Through the rugged wilderness of Alaska to the halls of Congress, Sulnick has been at the center of the most critical environmental battles of our lifetime. He didn't just fight for the planet; he won. Forging unlikely alliances between celebrities, tribal leaders, and even the oil executives, he united all in defense of nature.

Part high-stakes legal memoir and part masterclass, this book offers a unique guidebook for the next generation of activists. Sulnick reveals how to bridge the gap between ideological divides and build the coalitions necessary to confront climate change today.

In this book, you will find:

• Rare looks into the aftermath of the Bhopal gas disaster and its legal legacy.
• Proven methods for coalition building and environmental lobbying.
• Behind-the-scenes accounts of fighting oil and water giants across the world.
• Practical wisdom on how to continue the fight for the long haul.

For anyone ready to act, this book proves how one person-and one movement-can truly change the future.

"Bob Sulnick is a courageous eco hero. I have worked with him on critical issues such as solar power, recycling, air emissions, drought, electric cars, EV charging stations, Native American environmental protections, and this century's existential threat-global warming. In all our work together, we brought industry, the environmental community, and policymakers together to protect the environment. Sulnick wrote this book to educate and explain how to fight climate change-the most critical issue of our time. If our overheating climate concerns you, Nature's Ally is a must-read!"
