The Climate Impasse: Disavowal, Exhaustion and Everyday Life in the Climate Crisis
ABSTRACT The consequences of climate‐related disasters and emergencies are becoming increasingly stark. And yet in many places, consensus on climate action appears unattainable. I call this problem the climate impasse. In this paper, I draw on emerging theory on affect and negativity to characterise this impasse in three ways.

Remote Sensing for Operational Surveillance of Mosquito‐Borne Diseases
Abstract Remote sensing observations have demonstrated increasing value in identifying human risk from mosquito‐borne diseases because mosquito ecology is intrinsically tied to geophysical variables measurable by satellites. Satellite‐based monitoring of environmental conditions at varying temporal and spatial scales has extended our capacity for ...

The Materiality of Everyday Practices in Urban Greenspace [PDF]
This paper investigates how urban greenspace is integrated in everyday practices of urban populations. What are the social functions that green areas serve, and how do people interact with the materiality of urban greenspace. The paper reports from a recent empirical study in Copenhagen, Denmark, and it seeks to qualify concepts of lifestyle and ...
