I've been getting around a bit lately, intellectually speaking, and enjoying the discourse at a series of lectures on and around the concept of climate justice:
This is a video of Mary Robinson speaking on climate justice at the Possibilities 2011 event - she was deadly! G'wan Mary!!
This was a fantastic lecture in Trinity on Climate Wise Women - basically, women (as 70% of the world's farmers) are dealing with climate change head on - and how. We met a lady from Uganda and another from the South Pacific Islands, both of whom spoke of the ongoing challenges they face from rising sea levels and tropical storms to the devastating pendulum of flood and drought. Thought provoking stuff.
This is a link to info on a very interesting seminar at the Royal Irish Academy on the geography of climate justice. Lots of interesting talks from folks across the academic spectrum, from philosophers to planners to scientists.
