How does culture interact with the way societies understand, live
with, and act in relation to climate change? While the importance
of the exchanges between culture, society and climate in the
context of global environmental change is increasingly recognised,
the empirical evidence is fragmented and too often constrained by
disciplinary boundaries. Written by an international team of
experts, this book provides cutting-edge and critical perspectives
on how culture both facilitates and inhibits our ability to address
and make sense of climate change and the challenges it poses to
societies globally. Through a set of case studies spanning the
social sciences and humanities, it explores the role of culture in
relation to climate and its changes at different temporal and
spatial levels; illustrates how approaching climate change through
the cultural dimension enriches the range and depth of societal
engagements; and establishes connections between theory and
practice, which can stimulate action-oriented initiatives.
