Watch Your Head

An anthology of creative works devoted to climate justice and the climate crisis and all issues that intersect. We are in a climate emergency. When the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) sent the alarm bell in their October 2018 report, the message was we cannot continue on the same path; we must dramatically reduce carbon emissions. Kathryn Mockler, publisher of The Rusty Toque (2011-2017), in response to the dramatic climate crisis reports and her own anxiety about the state of the world, created WatchYourHead.ca, an online anthology open to innovative creative works in a variety of forms (poetry, fiction, essays, rants, manifestos, hybrid works, and visual art) that respond to the climate crisis. This print anthology will include the best of the website plus new work. The anthology editors include: Madhur Anand, Stephen Collis, Jennifer Dorner, Daniel Lockhart, Catherine Graham, Elena Johnson, Canisia Lubrin, Kim Mannix, June Pak, Sina Queyras, Shazia Hafiz Ramji, Rasiqra Revulva, Sanchari Sur, and Jacqueline Valencia.
