A call for a sociology of adaptation
INTRODUCTION As the impacts of climate change worsen worldwide, the need for society to adapt is becoming inescapable. While scholars in many disciplines, especially geography, have long examined climate change adaptation, the topic has been given relatively less attention in sociology. This is a missed opportunity for sociologists and a detriment to the study of adaptation, on which sociologists have a lot to offer.
Cosmolocalism: the key to our economic transformation
This is the second of two articles that focus on the systems thinking behind the economic transformation I am advocating. It was originally published on The Alternative, for which the link is here. The idea that we need to transform the economic system in order to avoid environmental catastrophe is growing in popularity.
Grappling with the Great Unraveling
I write in the quirky coffee shop, aware of my twitchy fingers and buzzy mind from the caffeine dose I ingested. My little table sits alongside a huge glass garage door. This shop is a repurposed Jiffy Lube. Where car mechanics once drained and refilled motor oil, now workers of the information age drain and refill coffee-themed beverages.
Revealed: Media Blitz Against Heat Pumps Funded by Gas Lobby Group
An energy trade association that represents and promotes gas boilers and manufacturers is behind a barrage of negative press attacking heat pumps, DeSmog has learned. Over the past two years, the Energy and Utilities Association (EUA) has paid a public affairs firm to generate hundreds of articles and interviews to lobby the UK government on energy policy. The PR campaign subjects heat pumps to intense criticism.
How ‘locally led’ adaptation can help address climate change
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) sixth assessment report made it clear that many adaptation projects around the world are not delivering on the promise to build resilience to climate impacts. Currently, less than 10% of global climate finance is reaching communities directly, restricting the intended beneficiaries to have little or no say over how funds are to be spent. Acknowledgement of this has triggered calls to strengthen “locally led adaptation” (LLA).
Tactical Opposition: Obstructing Loss and Damage Finance in the United Nations Climate Negotiations
Mizan R. Khan has a PhD in environmental policy and management from the School of Public Policy, University of Maryland, College Park. He has also been a visiting professor and fellow at Brown University, the University de Poitiers, the School of Public Policy at the University of Maryland College Park, and the University of Manitoba. He was a lead author of the IPCC. Dr. Khan has been serving as lead negotiator of climate finance with the Bangladesh delegation since 2001.
After nearly three decades of climate talks the future remains uncertain
While the Paris Agreement is a great achievement in international diplomacy its direct impact on climate change is another matter The 26th Conference of the Parties (COP) meeting for the UN climate negotiations was planned to take place in Glasgow, UK in November. Like many other large events, the negotiations were postponed due to Covid precautions.
Shifting adaptation towards nature-based solutions
At COP 25, everyone was talking about a new approach to climate action: Nature-based solutions (NbS). Nature-based solutions (NbS) was endorsed in both recent IPCC Reports and is one of several keys “action portfolios” at UN Climate Summit in New York in September 2019. At least ten side events - where researchers, civil society members, and policymakers come together to discuss pressing issues and innovate solutions – included NbS in their titles.
Bangladesh research network builds climate knowledge and resilience | Zilient
* Any views expressed in this article are those of the author and not of the partner organisations producing zilient.org. “Gobeshona” is the Bangla word for research. It is also the name of an innovative knowledge network of climate change researchers in Bangladesh working to build capacity to adapt to climate change. Knowledge is integral for enhancing this capacity, and the Gobeshona network is a model that can be replicated around the world to strengthen international climate adaptation.
Transformative adaptation in Bangladesh | Dhaka Tribune
Adaptation and development in Bangladesh are one in the same issue. This became clear to me almost immediately when I arrived in Dhaka and began working with the International Centre for Climate Change and Development (ICCCAD). As a country that faces enormous geographic vulnerability to climate change, as well as one that has been actively developing over the last several decades, it makes sense that an adaptive development strategy would be advantageous.
