The Editor: Grace Maddrell
Grace Maddrell first went on school strike for the climate at the age of thirteen and has since become a passionate activist for equality and climate justice. Grace was first inspired to tweet asking for contributions to what became Tomorrow Is Too Late in November 2019, two months after marching in the September global climate justice strike.
Grace has worked with various activist groups, including Fridays for Future and the #SaveCongoRainforest, and helped co-found Solo But Not Alone, a social media solo striker support group. Grace is home-schooled and lived in Somerset in southwest England at the time of compiling Tomorrow Is Too Late.
On Eco-Activism & Solastalgia
Grace Maddrell
I’m sure many of us know what it’s like waking up and feeling as if there’s a weight on your chest, for no apparent reason at all; of fighting for something to look forward to because the present circumstances are just so very bleak… what we’re talking about here is those global issues and crises that impact our mental well-being often more than even we know. More particularly, about a single, overwhelming global issue: The climate crisis.
Grace Maddrell first went on school strike for the climate at the age of thirteen, and has since become a passionate activist for equality and climate justice. In On Eco-Activism & Solastalgia she asks, what is the impact of the climate crisis on mental well-being and what is the cost of activism and advocacy against the climate crisis on our mental health?

Public speaking is one of the thing that I developed through @RaleighTanzania and @RaleighSociety_ As a #ExCEL3Tanzania project leader I became more confident to speak on public with no fear.

The Best of Times, The Worst of Times
Paul Behrens

An Artificial Revolution
Ivana Bartoletti
Leading privacy expert Ivana Bartoletti exposes the reality behind the AI revolution, from the low-paid workers who train algorithms to recognise cancerous polyps, to the rise of data violence and the symbiotic relationship between AI and right-wing populism.
Chauvo-Feminism
Sam Mills
Acclaimed author Sam Mills investigates the phenomenon of the chauvo-feminist, the man whose public feminism works to advance his career, whilst his private self exhibits age-old chauvinistic tactics. The #MeToo movement was a flagship moment, but have some men simply changed tactics?
