This book provides an accessible overview of how efforts to combat climate change and social inequalities should be tackled simultaneously. In the context of the climate emergency, the impacts of extreme events can already be felt around the world. The book centres on five case studies from the Global South, Latin America, Pacific Islands, Africa, and Asia with each one focused on climate justice, resilience, and community responses towards a just transition. The book will be an invaluable reference for advanced undergraduates and postgraduate students, researchers, policymakers, and practitioners in environmental studies, urban planning, geography, social science, international development, and disciplines that focus on the social dimensions of climate change.

This book presents a set of chapters produced by six research groups that developed the São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP) Thematic Project Environmental Governance of the São Paulo macrometropolis (SPMM) in the face of Climate Variability (2017–2022). It represents an academic experience based on the articulation of knowledge and interdisciplinary dialogue. For this publication, the individual research groups benefitted from internal expertise and interdisciplinary input, reflecting the collaborative process of the entire team.The SPMM is characterized by the diversity and complementarity of economic, social and environmental functions exercised in its territory, comprising 174 municipalities, with the capital city of São Paulo as its polarizing center. It is structured from a set of five metropolitan regions, two urban agglomerates and one micro-region—not institutionalized—in the State of São Paulo, sheltering around 34 million people who inhabit the richest and economically strongest region in Brazil. The SPMM, one of the urban territorial clusters of greatest expression in the southern hemisphere, is a strategic arena for the formulation and implementation of planning, governance and trans- and multi-scalar regional public policies.The English translation of this book from its Portuguese original manuscript was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision of the content was done by the volume editors.

The second edition of Environment and Society: Concepts for a Just Transformation delivers a major, timely update to one of the field’s most respected concept‑driven environmental social science texts. Fully revised and significantly re-oriented to highlight concepts informing social projects in just transformation, this edition reshapes the book around an enhanced set of contemporary concepts—adding new chapters, removing outdated material, and thoroughly updating those retained—to reflect the dramatic shifts in how scholars, policymakers, and communities understand society–environment relations. With contributions from an even more globally diverse group of authors, the book now brings stronger representation from the Global South and a wider array of disciplinary perspectives.The book examines whether today’s dominant ideas and conceptual frameworks meaningfully support a “Just Transformation” in the face of deepening environmental and climatological crises. Across eleven concept‑focused chapters—ranging from justice, colonialism, and intersectionality to futures, metabolism, collective action, commons, footprints, and more—contributors offer accessible syntheses, illustrative examples, and end‑of‑chapter discussion topics designed for classroom use.This edition is designed for advanced undergraduate and graduate students across environmental studies, environmental sociology, geography, sustainability, and allied social sciences, as well as scholars seeking a clear, comparative resource on conceptual trends. It will also appeal to practitioners, NGO staff, and policy professionals who require a deeper understanding of the conceptual tools shaping environmental thinking today.
