all we can save circles

Ready to dive deeper in community, dialogue, and climate action?

→ Why Circles?

Caring about the climate crisis can be incredibly isolating. Polling tells us climate conversations are few and far between, yet we know folks are hungry for deeper, more generous dialogue on the topic and to circle up in ways that connect, nourish, and seed action. All We Can Save Circles are designed to meet those needs.

→ What are Circles?

Circles are a free, open self-led framework of 10 sessions that follow the course of the All We Can Save anthology, designed to nurture connection, encourage generous dialogue, and seed action for climate solutions. 

To date, nearly a thousand people have signed up to lead Circles, representing almost every US state and 40 countries and at least 6,000+ people have participated in a Circle.

→ What does it mean to lead a Circle?

Circle leaders are the connective tissue. We’ll provide the content, and you’ll invite friends, family, colleagues, and / or fellow good-troublemakers to be part of a Circle; coordinate when your Circle will meet; and facilitate each session.

→ Okay, I’m in!

→ What is the All We Can Save anthology?

All We Can Save is a bestselling anthology of writing, poetry, and art by 60 women at the forefront of the climate movement who are harnessing truth, courage, and solutions to lead humanity forward. You can find it at your local library or online here. Learn more about the All We Can Save anthology.

→ What are people saying about Circles?

Lots. Here are a few tidbits: 

  • “It literally changed my life and made me feel seen and heard in a way I never have before. I finally feel like I have a place in the climate movement.”

  • “I started a Circle with a group of women and it is saving my life. We only meet monthly but it gives me hope and connection and brings me joy.”

  • "I’m astounded by how transformed and motivated I feel to do more after reading this book and participating in the Circle, and not out of fear but out of love."

→ What does each session look like?

Each Circle session includes an opening check-in, discussion questions, and a journal prompt for more reflection time after the session. It also includes read/watch/listen resources for each of the essayists, poets, and artists you’ll encounter in All We Can Save, in case you’d like to go deeper in their work.

You can check out each of the session materials on the Circles homepage here.
