Paul Chatterton’s new book How to Save the City is a guide for action on the converging and accelerating emergencies of our age. While the climate emergency is the most urgent, we also face deep and long standing social inequalities in health, housing, work, gender and race, thebreakdown of our natural world, and the deep ripples resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic.
