Climate change is at the forefront of ideas about public policy,
the economy and labour issues. However, the gendered dimensions of
climate change and the public policy issues associated with it in
wealthy nations are much less understood. Climate Change and Gender
in Rich Countries covers a wide range of issues dealing with work
and working life. The book demonstrates the gendered distinctions
in both experiences of climate change and the ways that public
policy deals with it. The book draws on case studies from the UK,
Sweden, Australia, Canada, Spain and the US to address key issues
such as: how gendered distinctions affect the most vulnerable; paid
and unpaid work; and activism on climate change. It is argued that
including gender as part of the analysis will lead to more
equitable and stronger societies as solutions to climate change
advance. This volume will be of great relevance to students,
scholars, trade unionists and international organisations with an
interest in climate change, gender, public policy and environmental
studies.
