An immersive, character-driven portrait of the far right’s response to ecological catastrophe, showing that as the climate crisis deepens so too does the threat of a dangerous, violent ecofascist movement 

We are living through a moment of profound crisis, one in which right-wing “replacement” ideology—the notion that migrants are crowding out white Christian citizens—is colliding with ecological breakdown to denature democracy in the United States and across the world. In Blood, Soil, and Oil award-winning investigative reporter Candice Bernd brings us face to face with environmentally conscious January 6th rioters, population-obsessed mass shooters, and nativist domestic terrorists to sound a warning bell about the dangers of ecofascism. She links these concerns to both the deep historical legacy of the Third Reich’s conservation practices and the limits of those green commitments.

As the climate crisis intensifies, Bernd’s reporting and analysis is urgent reading for environmental justice activists aiming to insulate themselves from the threat of ecofascist co-optations facing our movements for a more just world.
