Despite all her years as a geologist and environmental attorney, she cannot understand why we aren’t doing more to save ourselves from the looming eco-apocalypse and the unraveling of Earth's vital life support systems. Fueled by her fierce love of Earth and her children, she writes, speaks, snarks and creates events to motivate all of us to take meaningful action for a more sustainable future.
Her book, Madness on the Brink of Eco-Apocalypse, casts a penetrating light on the gravest environmental threats to our survival, including a wealth of scientific and factual evidence and masterfully woven with engaging anecdotes and sharp, laugh-out-loud humor.
Her award-winning book, Love Earth Now, is a deeply thoughtful, often neurotic, and sometimes comedic exploration of her own efforts to make an eco-contribution. Through personal observation, that she records in stunningly beautiful prose, Leutjen’s ode to our planet is one of the most distinctive ecological books to come along in a generation.
Cheryl hosts the YouTube series Saving OurSelves: Communities vs Eco-Apocalypse to showcase groups that are acting to protect and restore Earth’s life support systems. Because we sure can’t wait for our government, the megacorps or the oligarchs to do it for us. We are here to save ourselves.
Cheryl lives in Los Angeles, where she smashes pizza boxes, digs up the yard and throw darts as therapy. Her resume is here.
We came here to play, full out, with everything on the line.
