PrintThis week, we will look at climate change and how geographers have studied it. The first reading from this week examines the potential of commons to be scaled up to manage issues of climate change. The second reading highlights gaps in the research on rising sea levels as a result of climate change.
Consider these questions as you go through the material for this week:
- How are decisions such as that of keeping global temperature rise to below 2 degrees Celsius taken at the global scale?
- Is the global fight against climate change reinforcing (or worse, increasing) the existing inequalities and further marginalizing the marginalized?
