"""If you think you know what environmentalism is, read this paradigm-changing book. Bresnihan and Millner unearth hidden histories and practices of movements that are not typically considered environmental and yet drive ecological care and repair today."" Dimitris Papadopoulos, University of Nottingham. ""The history from the mid-20th century and critique of 'environmentalism' are beautifully structured and carefully argued. The movement examples provide a political backdrop and resonate profoundly with the unpredictable pluriversality of the planet."" Peter Linebaugh, author of The Magna Carta Manifesto and Red Round Globe Hot Burning ""Moves gracefully from Amilcar Cabral to Ken Saro-Wiwa, the 1992 Rio Summit to La Via Campesina, meticulously and ingeniously unearthing an anti-colonial, Indigenous, and Third World-centred environmentalism which has been assassinated or buried alive by neo-colonialism ... vital for anyone concerned with the struggles to make the world big enough for everyone."" Max Ajl, Ghent University ""Both exuberant and carefully crafted, All We Want Is The Earth renders relationships between land, labour and decolonisation crystal clear. A clarion call for resistance and possibility in making just and flourishing futures."" Sian Sullivan, Bath Spa University"
