What if we could love the planet as much as we love one another?"Warm, wise, and overflowing with generosity, this is a love story so epic it embraces all of creation. Yet another reminder of how blessed we are to be in the struggle with elders like David and Tara.” – Naomi Klein and Avi LewisWhat You Won’t Do for Love is an inspiring conversation about love and the environment. When artist Miriam Fernandes approached the legendary eco-pioneer David Suzuki to create a theatre piece about climate change, she expected to write about David’s perspective as a scientist. Instead, she discovered the boundless vision and efforts of Tara Cullis, a literature scholar, climate organizer, and David’s life partner. Miriam realized that David and Tara’s decades-long love for each other, and for family and friends, has only clarified and strengthened their resolve to fight for the planet.What You Won’t Do for Love transforms real-life conversations between David, Tara, Miriam, and her husband Sturla into a charmingly novel and poetic work. Over one idyllic day in British Columbia, Miriam and Sturla take in a lifetime of David and Tara’s adventures, inspiration, and love, and in turn reflect on their own relationships to each other and the planet. Revealing David Suzuki and Tara Cullis in an affable, conversational, and often comedic light, What You Won’t Do For Love asks if we can love our planet the same way we love one another.

The "Declaration of Interdependence" -- both an enlightening creed and a passionate call to action -- was composed by David Suzuki and a team of activists and environmentalists in 1992, in recognition of the United Nations'' Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro.This convincing statement of environmental principles progresses through three stages. First, “This We Know” places humans firmly within the community of living things that depend on biodiversity for survival—“We humans are but one of thirty million species weaving the thin layer of life enveloping the world.” The second section, “This We Believe,” acknowledges that we have put the survival of the planet at risk, and then optimistically asserts that we must “now build a new politics of hope.” And in the final and moving section, “This We Resolve,” we are called on to embrace responsibility and to work “for an evolution: from dominance to partnership; from fragmentation to connection; from insecurity, to interdependence.”In this exquisitely designed edition, produced to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the founding of the David Suzuki Foundation, the Declaration of Interdependence is beautifully interpreted by artist Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas. Using imagery and icons from traditions and cultures around the world, interpreted through his dynamic Haida-Manga
