Devastating wildfires, droughts, and floods. Melting ice caps and rising sea levels. Climate change seems irreversible … The world needs a superhero to step in—NOW. Following the death of her mother in a horrifying wildfire, seventeen-year-old Kora wants to ensure that not one more child loses a parent to a traumatic climate event. As the most severe possible projected climate change outcomes actually happen in real-time, rapid action is needed. But is it too late? What can a female, bi-racial, teenager with untapped superpowers do?How about saving the planet? Empowered by her supernatural abilities, Kora embraces her destiny as EcoQueen, the superhero of a new generation, whom the world so desperately needs. With help from her autistic twin brother, Río, she sets out on a mission to protect the people and ecosystems threatened by rising sea levels, catastrophic floods, drought, hurricanes, wildfires, mining, oil spills, and pollution across the globe. As Kora learns to control her fantastic gifts and use them for good, she realizes the impact of environmental changes caused by humans, fossil fuels, and pollution. While Kora begins her epic journey across the planet to battle the destructive forces of climate change, she must also solve the mystery of the miraculous sacred seeds—which may just hold the secret to stopping global warming once and for all. The stakes could not be higher for the state of the environment, it is due time for a superhero to step in—and her name is EcoQueen. A note for parents and teachers: This low-fantasy dystopian young adult Cli-Fi novel by environmentalist, activist, Joanna Measer Kanow, helps youth readers understand the climate crisis and inspires them to take climate action in their own lives, to protect our ecosystems and contribute to a more sustainable future. Middle school teachers are encouraged to use it as part of their climate science curriculum.
