This book will inspire and spark grassroots action to address the
inequitable impacts of climate change, by showing how this can be
tackled and the many benefits of doing so. With contributions from
climate activists and engaged young authors, this volume explores
the many ways in which people are proactively working to advance
climate justice. The book pays special attention to Canada and the
Great Lakes watershed, showing how the effects of climate change
span local, regional, and global scales through the impact of
extreme weather events such as floods and droughts, with related
economic and social effects that cross political jurisdictions.
Examining examples of local-level activism that include organizing
for climate-resilient and equitable communities, the dynamic
leadership of Indigenous peoples (especially women) for water and
land protection, and diaspora networking, Local Activism for Global
Climate Justice also provides theoretical perspectives on how
individual action relates to broader social and political
processes. Showcasing a diverse range of inspirational and
thought-provoking case studies, this book will be of great interest
to students and scholars of climate justice, climate change policy,
climate ethics, and global environmental governance, as well as
teachers and climate activists.
