What you won't do for love : a conversation / by Suzuki, David,1936-author.; Cullis, Tara,author.; Fernandes, Miriam,author.; Jain, Ravi,1980-author.;
"What 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."--
