Description

While the impacts of climate change are global, the real consequences begin at the local level. Local Climate Change and Society provides a deep look into how these environmental shifts alter the relationship between human society and the natural world. This volume examines how specific communities work to adapt to and mitigate the effects of a changing climate. Readers will explore the principles and practices behind micro-level climate policies. The text looks at the growing role of local governments and the rise of social movements driven by the activities of transnational corporations. By analyzing responses both above and below the equator, this book offers a comprehensive view of how local actions shape the global environmental landscape. It is an essential resource for those studying economic policy, development, and the social dimensions of climate science.
