New book on CLIMATE JUSTICE

[HARRIS, Paul [SSC]]

Dear GEP-Ed Colleagues,

 

I am pleased to announce publication of a new book: A RESEARCH AGENDA FOR CLIMATE JUSTICE.

 

Despite the work of governments, activists and scholars to study and implement climate justice, the injustices of climate change -- greenhouse gas pollution and the felt impacts of environmental changes resulting from that pollution -- continue to increase. Realizing climate justice under these circumstances will require doing much more in the very near future; it will require new vision about the way forward. A RESEARCH AGENDA FOR CLIMATE JUSTICE aims to foster and present a provocative research agenda that can help to illuminate alternative pathways for scholars, policymakers and activists. In addition to furthering climate justice as a scholarly field, the book seeks real-world impact: producing and sharing an agenda for research that can inform and guide the way forward for those doing the actual work of climate justice. A key aim is to stimulate innovative, alternative perspectives on climate justice -- to explicitly avoid more of the same scholarship and more of the same policies. “There is no better analysis of the prospects of failure and success in climate justice.” Holmes Rolston III, University Distinguished Professor of Philosophy, University of Colorado
