"This edited collection explores a diverse range of climate (in)justice case studies from the Majority World - where most of humans and non-humans live. It is also the site of the most severe impacts of climate change and home to some of the key solutions for the climate crisis. The collection brings together twelve chapters featuring the work of over thirty authors from around the globe. The impacts of climate change are disproportionately affecting individuals, communities, and countries in the Majority World who historically have contributed little to rising global temperatures. The twelve chapters focus on a range of cross-cutting themes, demonstrating both individual and collective experiences of climate change and struggles for achieving climate justice from the Majority World. This includes activism, resistance, and social movement organising in India and Brazil, lived experiences and understandings of frontline communities in Bangladesh and South Africa, consequences of and responses to disasters in Mozambique and Puerto Rico, and contested accounts, narratives, and futures in the Maldives and Pakistan, among other topics. By adopting a decolonial lens, this book provides rich empirical content, insightful comparisons, and novel conceptual interventions. It foregrounds climate justice from an intersectional perspective and contributes to the ongoing efforts by scholars and activists to address epistemic injustice in climate change research, policy and practice. It will appeal to undergraduate and graduate-level students, academics, activists, policymakers, and members of the public concerned with the impacts and inequalities of climate change in the Majority World. Neil J. W. Crawford is a Research Fellow in Climate Action and member of the Priestley International Centre for Climate, University of Leeds, UK. Their research focuses on forced migration and displacement, refugee rights, climate justice and the inequalities of climate change, gender and sexuality, and cities"-- Provided by publisher.

"Climate change. Two words that are quickly becoming the clarion call to action in the twenty-first century. It is a voter issue, an economy driver, and a defining dynamic for the foreseeable future. Yet, in Black communities, climate change is seen as less urgent when compared to other pressing issues, including police brutality, gun violence, job security, food insecurity, and the blatant racism faced daily around the country. However, with Black Americans disproportionately impacted by the effects of climate change--making up 13 percent of the US population but breathing 40 percent dirtier air and being twice as likely to be hospitalized or die from climate-related health problems than white counterparts--climate change is a central issue of racial justice and affects every aspect of life for Black communities. In Before the Streetlights Come On, climate activist Heather McTeer Toney insists that those most affected by climate change are best suited to lead the movement for climate justice. McTeer Toney brings her background in politics, community advocacy, and leadership in environmental justice to this revolutionary exploration of why and how Black Americans are uniquely qualified to lead national and global conversations around systems of racial disparity and solutions to the climate crisis. As our country delves deeper into solutions for systemic racism and past injustices, she argues, the environmental movement must shift direction and leadership toward those most affected and most affecting change: Black communities."-- Provided by publisher

Issues of the environment and its sustainability are linked to those of global warming, climate change and loss of biodiversity. This is so because there is a general consensus in the scientific community that the long-term shift or alteration of temperature and weather patterns both locally and globally are the result of human activities not the least those of burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, agricultural practices, land-use changes, pollution. Accordingly, questions of environmental justice arise because of the threat that anthropogenic climate change pose to our planet. This book examines these issues using as its point of departure environmental justice, where environmental justice is concerned with environmental sustainability and the equitable treatment and involvement of people of all races, cultures, incomes, and educational levels in the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental programs, laws, rules, and policies. The book discusses, among other things, the population and consumption debate with regard to resource depletion and loss of biodiversity, problems of global policing of environmental pollution and greenhouse gas emissions by nation-states in the context of the tragedy of the commons and possible solutions to some of these problems from African and Native American philosophies and worldviews.

• Introduction: Creating a "common green vision"
• "Greening" authoritarianism
• The cooperative road towards sustainability in Shanghai
• An iron fist in a velvet glove
• Embracing the market
• Urban sustainability as consensual practice
• Concluding thoughts : environmental authoritarianism : from theory to practice.

"The urgency of the climate emergency is driving a consensus throughout the world that we must protect the environment. This book highlights how the consensual orchestration of sustainability in China's biggest city, Shanghai, affects non-state actors' ways of perceiving, acting, and organizing around environmental issues. Despite contrasting approaches, democratic and authoritarian governments all underline the fact that environmental protection is crucial and inevitable-and China's enthusiasm in stepping up its efforts to protect the environment has not gone unnoticed. China's Green Consensus examines grassroots realities as they intersect with events of everyday life, offering insights into areas that far transcend debates over coercive forms of environmentalism and exploring the "soft" and "green" facets of President Xi Jinping's authoritarian approach to governance. The importance of environmental protection in people's lives serves as a lens to analyze and understand authoritarian adaptations to environmental global phenomena. Arantes highlights how, through mobilization and (de)politicization, a "green" consensus leads to the displacement of state responsibilities and the cultivation of civil society in its own image. In so doing, she opens up new ways of thinking about the complexities of environmental governance, consensus politics, subject making, and citizenship in authoritarian contexts. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of Chinese society and politics, environmental politics, political ecology, international relations and urbanization in Asia"-- Provided by publisher.

"The book charts the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the impact that it has had on the lives of young people and their communities, education systems, the teaching profession, and the responses by governments, NGOs, and donor organisations in Pakistan. Drawing on theories of postcolonialism, feminism, and neo-liberal globalisation we explore the development of Pakistan as a postcolonial nation-state, and examine the legacies of colonialism in education systems and policies, teacher education and development. The Pakistani authors bring extensive knowledge and experience to this case study of the 'broken promise' of education for sustainable development. It will have significant policy and development impact in post COVID-19 Pakistan, South Asia more broadly, and in other postcolonial development contexts around the world as it develops a critique of the UN SDGs as a global and more local framework for development"-- Provided by publisher.

"This edited book, by Rosalina Diaz, represents a radical form of ethnography, as it presents the voices of academic scholars and scientists side by side with those of grassroots activists, native healers and community herbalists & brujas, in addressing issues of cultural & indigenous identity, agroecology, sustainability and self-determination in the Greater Antillean region of the Caribbean. As a result of European colonialism, the cultural development of the indigenous population was radically disrupted. Five thousand years of cultural knowledge, including plant wisdom, went underground. Herbal healers, shamed & ridiculed as "brujas" and "santeras," continued to practice in obscurity. The industrialization, urbanization and tourism projects of the 20th century exacerbated the exploitation of the natural environment, which began in earnest with the plantation economy imposed by European colonialism, leaving it vulnerable to climate change threats. However, the history of environmental activism and push-back of the islands is also noteworthy, "the Puerto Rican environmental movement got under way very early and has been distinctively political since its beginnings, twenty years before most other nations" (Concepcion, 1995). In the Greater Antilles, environmental activism has sprung up alongside grassroots political movements, as well as a resurgence of indigenous identity, and, as explained by the authors in this book, continues to be an act of resistance against on-going political, social and economic repression"-- Provided by publisher.

"An Ecological History of Modern China is the first attempt at a comprehensive and conceptually coherent account of the process of development in modern China, from the perspective not of the economy but of the biophysical world. This book shows that development in China is desirable in many ways, but that there is a cost in environmental degradation. Specifically, the book addresses the question of how agricultural, industrial, and urban development have affected the resilience of China's ecosystems-their ability to withstand disturbances and further growth"-- Provided by publisher.

"Centered around a massive ecological disaster in which 800,000 Algerians died between 1865 and 1872, Ecologies of Imperialism in Algeria explores how repeated performance of divisions across an expansive ecosystem produced modern imperialism in nineteenth-century Algeria"-- Provided by publisher.
"Between 1865 and 1872 widespread death and disease unfolded amid the most severe ecological disaster in modern North African history: a plague of locusts destroyed crops during a disastrous drought that left many Algerians landless and starving. The famine induced migration that concentrated vulnerable people in unsanitary camps where typhus and cholera ran rampant. Before the rains returned and harvests normalized, some eight hundred thousand Algerians had died. In Ecologies of Imperialism in Algeria Brock Cutler explores how repeated eco-social divisions across an expansive ecosystem produced modern imperialism in nineteenth-century Algeria. Massive ecological crises-cultural as well as natural-cleaved communities from their homes, individuals from those communities, and society from its typical ecological relations. At the same time, the relentless, albeit slow-moving crisis of ongoing settler colonialism and extractive imperial capitalism cleaved Algeria to France in a new way. Eco-social divisions became apparent in performances of imperial power: officials along the Algerian-Tunisian border compulsively repeated narratives of "transgression" that over decades made the division real; a case of poisoned bread tied settlers in Algiers to Paris; Morocco-Algeria border violence exposed the exceptional nature of imperial sovereignty; a case of vagabondage in Oran evoked colonial gender binaries. In each case, factors in the broader ecosystem were implicated in performances of social division, separating political entities from each other, human from nature, rational from irrational, and women from men. Although these performances take place in the nineteenth-century Maghrib, the process they describe goes beyond those spatial and temporal limits-across the field of modern imperialism to the present day"-- Provided by publisher.

Ecopedagogies showcases a range of creative approaches that educators across multiple disciplines use to empower students to access and engage with nature, an increasingly important consideration in a post-COVID world in environmental crisis. The volume includes chapters written by scholars from the environmental arts and humanities, literature, writing studies, rhetoric, music, religious studies, environmental studies and sustainability, sociology and anthropology, physical education, and outdoor education. Each author walks the reader through the details of how their ecopedagogy works, identifies potential challenges while also detailing how to address them, and explains the rewards to students, instructors, and more-than-human nature that they have witnessed through the use of these approaches. The contributions represent diverse types of academic institutions, offering broad applicability to instructors, including community colleges, private liberal arts colleges, and large state, regional, public, and private universities. The book explores a series of key questions about how educators can facilitate meaningful learning experiences with the natural world, inside and outside the classroom, and it looks at how to foster inclusivity, navigate problems with access, and explore intersections with environmental justice. As a practical guide, the book delivers a well-provisioned toolbox containing exercises, activity guides, and assignments for those teaching environmentally focused college courses.
