Synopsis

The Emmy Award–winning creator of GASLAND tells his intimate and damning, personal story of our world in crisis. With a foreword by Bill McKibben.The rules have changed.
The water has changed.
The climate has changed.
The truth has changed.
We must change.In The Truth Has Changed, Josh Fox turns the rapid-fire shocks that are remaking the very fabric of our lives—writing as a first responder, a reporter, a documentarian, and an activist—into art, literature, and at least one answer to the question of what the future holds.Our normal isn’t normal anymore.The paradigm shift that global warming represents parallels a paradigm shift in how we process truth. Both deeply affect democracy.Josh Fox has had a front row seat—a first responder after 9/11, filming the Deepwater Horizon spill close up from the air and on the ground, a member of Bernie Sanders’s delegation of the Democratic Platform Committee, risking his life to cross a bridge on Thanksgiving Day at Standing Rock, traveling the nation and the world, shooting his films, talking to people everywhere he goes.The Truth Has Changed is his first book, the companion to his new one-man show of the same title, and it’s beautiful.

About Josh Fox

The only journalist ever arrested in Congress for doing journalsm, Josh Fox is the man who made "fracking" a household word as writer/director/narrator of the Oscar-nominated, Emmy-winning film Gasland. His short videos on climate interruption, Standing Rock, Bernie Sanders and fracking have gone viral and been viewed over 60 million times. Josh is the founder and producing artistic director of the International WOW Company, which has produced over 40 new plays to consistent rave reviews. The New York Times calls him "one of the most adventurous impresarios of the New York avant-garde," and Time Out NY adds "one of downtown's most audacious auteurs." He has toured to over 500 American cities to speak to people about climate change and the proliferation of fossil fuel extraction, raising awareness at the grassroots. Josh's other films include the award-winning How to Let Go of the World and Love All the Things Climate Can't Change, and AWAKE, a Dream of Standing Rock. Josh has appeared on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Bill Maher, CBS World News Tonight, The Colbert Report, The Diane Rehm Show, NPR's Morning Edition and All Things Considered, Carson Daly, Chris Hayes, Democracy Now, and many other national broadcasts, and in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, the Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post, Time magazine, and many other national and metropolitan publications. He lives in New York City and New Orleans. The Truth Has Changed is his first book.

Goodreads review by David on June 14, 2018

I like Josh Fox because he is passionate. He is passionate enough to follow his passions, no matter where they take him, no matter what damage they do his Linked In profile (if he even has one), no matter what kind of bullies, be they police or corporate fixers, he encounters.

Goodreads review by Tom on December 09, 2020

Powerful and convincing! Who would have thought you could experience a powerful dramatization of the process of connecting the dots between Climate Change Activism, Hurricane Sandy, Deepwater Horizon, Rex Tillerson, The DNC, Cambridge Analytica, a Sweat Lodge Ceremony and Truth?! Well, Josh Fox and Bi......more

Goodreads review by Rodney on May 25, 2023

Definitely the most bizarre book I have listened to this year. Although I disagree with a great deal of what the author says, I give it three stars for a strange entertainment style. Largely the book is a dramatic rant of someone highly political and myopic. He makes broad overly general observation......more
