"A study of how successful campaigns to curb dangerous chemicals and pollution point to a way forward on climate change. [Solomon] has won acclaim for her four decades of work in her field, and in this book, she examines how a range of environmental crises have been addressed. . . . Solomon's review of answers to big problems displays her expertise and optimism in a pragmatic, inspiring package."
-- "Kirkus Reviews"

"Solomon is an engaging writer and there is a lot to learn in this book about the environmental crises of the past century. . . . For Solomon, these examples show that change happens when impacts are personal, perceptible and practical solutions are available--'the three p's'. For the climate crisis, in her view, the three p's have been met: its devastating consequences are being felt around the world and renewable energy has become affordable. Thus, she concludes, we can 'do it again.'"-- "Nature"

"Susan Solomon's Solvable is more than a history of environmental victories - it is a guide for action and a public policy hand-book. For scientists, environmentalists, economists, policy-makers, and anyone invested in the future of the planet, Solvable is an essential read."-- "Economic Record"

"This immensely readable and deeply insightful book by one of the world's most distinguished atmospheric scientists should be read by everybody who wants to better understand global environmental problems and solutions. Solomon shows that even the worst environmental problem of all--climate change--can still be mastered if society will only rise to the challenge."-- "John P. Holdren, President Obama's science advisor, 2009-2017"

"In Solvable, Susan Solomon rolls up her sleeves and digs into the lessons of past environmental problems, including DDT and acid rain, to inspire our hope for the future. She shows how today's problems, though daunting, are also solvable."-- "Fred Krupp, president, Environmental Defense Fund"

"[Susan Solomon] has demonstrated how people can come together to fix huge problems and has also played a crucial role in helping remediate a global threat. . . In her latest book, Solvable: How We Healed the Earth, and How We Can Do it Again, Dr. Solomon argues that we can learn from past environmental fights. Public awareness and consumer pressure can influence lawmakers, she says, and lead to positive change."

"Solomon has seen firsthand how people can force significant change to reverse environmental threats. 'Concerned women have played an outsized role in enacting change. . . public demand is one of the biggest movers.'"-- "Elle"
