Read Brave Saint Paul

2020: OUR CLIMATE CRISIS

The current state of the environment affects all of us, from Saint Paul to countries across the globe. We have all played a part in how we got here, and we are all a part of the solution. Read Brave aims to unite residents around this topic — to seek understanding of the science, share stories about its impact, and work together toward solutions. We will announce the 2020 young adult and nonfiction picks in November. Sign up for our Read Brave newsletter and be the first to know.

Join us for the 2020 launch: November 20-21, 2019

You’ve seen the headlines. You know the climate crisis is devastating the Earth. You want to know what we can do. What you can do. You’re not alone – and we think it’s time for answers. So, on November 20–21, 2019 we’re joining a global conversation: 24 Hours of Reality: Truth in Action and launching Read Brave.

Across two days, we will present film screenings, discussions, and more with our partners at the Science Museum of Minnesota, the City of Saint Paul, Climate Generation, and Climate Reality. It’s a chance to learn more about our plans for Read Brave 2020, and for friends, neighbors, and colleagues to hear the truth of what’s happening to our planet.
