Climate Change Exacerbates Inequality, but does Inequality Exacerbate Climate Change? (online)

November 4, 2021 @ 12:30 pm - 1:45 pm

A talk by Cindy Isenhour, Associate Professor of Anthropology and Climate Change, The University of Maine

Drawing on interdisciplinary literature on anthropogenic climate drivers and potential emissions reduction, Isenhour argues that while we’ve long recognized the need to pay attention to issues of power, equity, and justice when planning climate adaptation programs, these issues have been neglected in discussions about mitigation. We’ll consider linkages between inequality and emissions on various scales, from local to global, for addressing inequality as a means to design mitigation policies for addressing the climate emergency.
