About this listen

A 2025 Best Book Award Finalist in the Social Change category, and a Gold Medal recipient in the Green Living Category at the Living Now Book Awards!

In this radically optimistic climate change book, find yourself empowered to achieve sustainable living across every facet of your life—the personal, the professional, and the political.

What We Can Do provides a practical, data-based approach to guide listeners toward environmental impact across three key aspects of their lives: their daily choices, their careers, and their communities. This book reminds listeners they have far more power than they realize to make a meaningful difference on climate change.

Charlie Sellars pulls insight from his experience as a director of sustainability at Microsoft, which has underlined its commitment to be a green business with a pledge to become carbon negative, water positive, and zero waste by 2030. He also serves on the governing body of the iMasons Climate Accord, an industry coalition united to decarbonize digital infrastructure.

Inside this audiobook, you will learn how to:

  • Harness environmental science to make more sustainable decisions using the “Make It, Move It, Lose It, Use It” framework.
  • Turn your job into a sustainability job, no matter what you do for a living.
  • Unleash the power of your voice at the ballot box and in your local community.

Nobody can do everything, but everybody can do something. It’s not too late to defeat the climate crisis, and What We Can Do will show you how.

Critic reviews

“Never has decisive action on climate and environment been more important. This book will help citizens all across America understand that while no one can do everything, everyone can do something—and offers a myriad of ways they can get started too.” —Dr. Trista Patterson, Time100 Climate Leader, 2023, and co-founder of Playing for the Planet
