Beskrivning
Climate Futures Across Disciplines explores the multifaceted nature of climate futures, showcasing how early-career researchers are helping to pioneer what innovation in academia might look like. The volume shows how emerging scholars can sustain disciplinary rigour while engaging wider ecological, political, societal, and perceptual concerns. Instead of treating climate change purely as scientific or policy analysis, the book approaches future-oriented thinking as a domain of imagination, design, and governance. Initial chapters translate climate change into lived or felt experience through creative performance, visual practice, and palaeoclimate analogues, then move to infrastructure design, fair transport decarbonisation, renewable energy markets, and inclusive water governance. The final section considers governance, law, and institutional responsibility, illustrating how climate futures unfold in sanitation systems, mining towns, carbon markets, and environmental rights frameworks. Throughout, contributors emphasise that climate futures are lived, negotiated, and unevenly experienced. Their analyses foreground justice, lived experience, and practical insight, while recognising the need for future research that connects grounded practices to accelerating risks and inequalities.Breaking academic barriers to inspire new and innovative research approaches, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of social justice, environmental justice, climate justice, and human rights, as well as to policymakers, activists, NGOs, and public interest lawyers.

"Climate Futures Across Disciplines is a timely and thoughtful contribution to the climate conversation—rigorous in its scholarship, refreshingly global in scope, and enriched by the intergenerational collaboration between emerging researchers and seasoned mentors. This volume doesn’t just imagine climate futures; it models the kind of intellectual pluralism and cross-disciplinary dialogue we urgently need to shape these futures."- Dr Shashi Tharoor, Member of Parliament for Thiruvananthapuram, Lok Sabha and Chairman of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on External Affairs, India; Former Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations"Climate Futures Across Disciplines demonstrates the kind of creative, collaborative approach society needs in our quest to make real progress in addressing the existential threats posed by the climate and environmental crises. Weaving together art, science, politics and law, the book features a highly engaging and thought-provoking set of essays authored by a diversity of researchers, young and old, from the South and the North. Looking for hope? You'll find it here!"- Dr David Boyd, Professor at University of British Columbia and Former UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights and the Environment
