Leading Binnizá and Maya Ch'orti' scientist Jessica Hernandez, PhD, weaves together Indigenous knowledge, environmental science, and personal family stories in her highly anticipated follow-up to the LA Times best-seller Fresh Banana Leaves.

Not every environmental problem is a result of climate change, but every environmental and climate change problem is a result of colonialism.

Dr. Jessica Hernandez offers readers an Indigenous, Global-South lens on the climate crisis, delivering a compelling and urgent exploration of its causes--and its costs. She shares how the impacts of colonial climate catastrophe--from warming oceans to forced displacement of settler ontologies--can only be addressed at the root if we reorient toward Indigenous science and follow the lead of Indigenous peoples and communities.
