This new book captures the latest peer reviewed literature and weaves an entertaining, easy to read and chilling narrative about how a number of concentrated efforts by vested economic and ideological interests have successfully worked to imperil the planet. Read this book carefully when you develop new measures to advance climate action." Robert J. Brulle, Brown University, USA "Climate Obstruction: How Denial, Delay and Inaction are Heating the Planet is an authorative introduction laying out the key definitions and components of climate obstruction. To a lay reader and an audience familiar with the topic they encapsulate a clear summary of what obstruction is usefully using a three-part typology to identify and help understand the complexity of climate obstruction and why it manifests. A fantastic text and well-needed read to help understand the history of and continuing role that climate obstruction plays in delaying the required changes to mitigate the climate crisis." Ruth E. McKie, De Montfort University, Leicester, UK "This is the book we've been needing: Climate Obstruction gives us big concepts to understand why we haven't acted on climate change, and to figure out how we might. Obstruction comes in different types, and overcoming each requires understanding and strategies specific to each. From a history of understanding and responses to climate science to documentation of the complex denial apparatus and contemporary obstruction to a look at the psychological side of well-meaning people getting in the way, Climate Obstruction makes a genuine, pathbreaking contribution." J. Timmons Roberts, Brown University, USA https://www.etc.se/klimat-miljo/utbrett-motstaand-mot-klimatomstaellning https://storaideer.podbean.com/e/klimatfornekarnas-handbok/ Grappling with this question, Climate Obstruction is a timely and sophisticated assessment of how diverse actors in the Global North intentionally and unintentionally impede appropriate climate measures of mitigation. Bringing together insights from environmental history, communication studies, psychology and sociology, the authors successfully meet their aim to provide an accessible overview that enables academics and interested readers from a wider public to explore this vibrant research field. () Climate Obstruction is an eye-opening, thought-provoking contribution and a must-read for everybody who despairs of understanding why late modern societies are sliding into climate catastrophe with their eyes wide open, or to be precise are already in the midst of it. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/09644016.2023.2215659 Hauke Dannemann (2023) Climate obstruction: how Denial, delay and inaction are heating the planet, Environmental Politics, DOI: 10.1080/09644016.2023.2215659
