Описание: The immediate challenge of COVID-19 in 2020 and beyond notwithstanding, there can be little doubt that climate change poses the most significant threat to the ongoing survival of humankind. It seems that almost every day brings new evidence of this fact. The Australian summer of 2019-2020, to draw upon but one example, witnessed a terrible trifecta of heatwaves, drought and bushfires, made worse by climate change. This volume of essays seeks this path of pragmatism, incrementally searching out a new moral order, a new way of living collectively that recognises the risks, and responds to them in humility. In five contributions, we seek an outline of what is necessary if we are to change the way we live. Each of the contributors takes a plural and pragmatic approach. There are no sweeping claims about our solutions providing the ultimate panacea. Instead, in each case, humility informs the proposal -- clear that what is presented here is done so not as a panacea, but as an incremental offering of what might be tried as we, humanity, respond to the challenge of climate change. None of science or the social sciences and humanities, alone, can fix this problem. Indeed, it may not be possible to fix this problem. What each discipline can do, however, is offer, in humility, a suggestion that will make a small change to be added to many other small changes. The hope, of course, is that these incremental changes will produce a new way of living on this planet, one characterised by humility, pluralism, and pragmatism.

Описание: Climate change is perhaps the most important issue of our time and yet the international measures necessary to mitigate it have not been implemented. Given the urgency of the problem, why has so little been done? Climate Ethics identifies the reasons behind this crucial paradox and outlines a way forward.

Описание: Focusing on cultural values and norms as they are translated into politics and policy outcomes, this book presents a unique contribution in combining research from varied disciplines and from both the developed and developing world. This collection draws from multiple perspectives to present an overview of the knowledge related to our current understanding of climate change politics and culture. It is divided into four sections – Culture and Values, Communication and Media, Politics and Policy, and Future Directions in Climate Politics Scholarship – each followed by a commentary from a key expert in the field. The book includes analysis of the challenges and opportunities for establishing successful communication on climate change among scientists, the media, policy-makers, and activists. With an emphasis on the interrelation between social, cultural, and political aspects of climate change communication, this volume should be of interest to students and scholars of climate change, environment studies, environmental policy, communication, cultural studies, media studies, politics, sociology.

Описание:

Curating the Future: Museums, Communities and Climate Change explores the way museums tackle the broad global issue of climate change. It explores the power of real objects and collections to stir hearts and minds, to engage communities affected by change.

Museums work through exhibitions, events, and specific collection projects to reach different communities in different ways. The book emphasises the moral responsibilities of museums to address climate change, not just by communicating science but also by enabling people already affected by changes to find their own ways of living with global warming.

There are museums of natural history, of art and of social history. The focus of this book is the museum communities, like those in the Pacific, who have to find new ways to express their culture in a new place. The book considers how collections in museums might help future generations stay in touch with their culture, even where they have left their place. It asks what should the people of the present be collecting for museums in a climate-changed future? The book is rich with practical museum experience and detailed projects, as well as critical and philosophical analyses about where a museum can intervene to speak to this great conundrum of our times. Curating the Future is essential reading for all those working in museums and grappling with how to talk about climate change. It also has academic applications in courses of museology and museum studies, cultural studies, heritage studies, digital humanities, design, anthropology, and environmental humanities.

Описание: In this book, eleven prominent authorities on climate change consider the legal, policy and philosophical issues presented by geoengineering. The book asks: when, if ever, are decisions to embark on climate modification projects justified? If they are justified, in a world without a central governing authority, who should authorize such projects and by what moral and legal right?
