> [!NOTE] How the Largest Social Movement in History Is Restoring Grace, Justice, and Beauty to the World > `Author:` Paul Hawken ## Summary Paul Hawken devoted over a decade to studying organisations committed to environmental restoration and social justice. Ranging from vast, billion-dollar charities to small, individual grassroots initiatives, these groups together form what he describes as the largest movement on Earth — one without a single name, recognised leader, or central headquarters, and largely overlooked by both politicians and the media. In _Blessed Unrest_, Hawken examines the movement’s remarkable diversity, its imaginative ideas, inventive strategies, and its often unacknowledged historical roots. Drawing upon his many years of leadership in environmental and social justice work, he offers a perspective intended to encourage those who feel despondent about the planet’s future, while presenting insights that may even surprise participants within the movement itself. ## Key Takeaways ## Quotes - ## Notes > [!info] > ## Highlights `Concepts:` `Knowledge Base:`
