Climate-driven depopulation and adaptation realities in America’s coastal ground zero
Climate change at the margins of the megacity
Future-making beyond (im)mobility through tethered resilience
Becoming a Climate Migrant
When and how does someone living through climate crisis decide to migrate? This article theorizes climate migration using an ethnographic case from northeastern Colombia during protracted drought. Results reveal that a household's decision to move in response to climate hazards is not a single event-but rather one in a sequence of decisions to stay or go. This analysis demonstrates that the number of decisions a family has made to stay impacts th…
Impacts of warming on outdoor worker well-being in the tropics and adaptation options
Ad Hoc Adaptations to Climate Change in Coastal Communities
Climate change disproportionately impacts coastal residents in the United States. Existing studies document institutional efforts to adapt to sea level rise through projects like seawalls, beach nourishment, and property acquisitions to protect communities from rising seas. Such studies capture institutional adaptations, but do not include ad hoc adaptations by homeowners impacted by climate change. How are homeowners adapting to climate hazards?…
Between a Rock and a Hard Place
Residents of informal settlements worldwide face challenges defending their land tenure. In contexts with overlapping systems of governance these challenges are even more complex and claims to land tenure more precarious. How do heterogeneous systems of governance, a characteristic of some global South megacities, affect evictions? This article presents an in-depth case study of the informal Otodo Gbame waterfront settlement's struggle to defend …
Everyday Adaptation
Everyday adaptation practices by coffee farmers in three mountain regions in Africa
Mountain environments in East Africa experience more rapid increases in temperature than lower elevations, which, together with changing rainfall patterns, often negatively affect coffee production. However, little is known about the adaptation strategies used by smallholder coffee farmers in Africa. Using the lens of everyday adaptation, semi-structured interviews were carried out with 450 smallholder farmers living near the Bale Mountains in Et…
How are healthy, working populations affected by increasing temperatures in the tropics? Implications for climate change adaptation policies
Average ambient temperatures are 2.6–8.3 °C cooler in forests than open areas. • Work shifts, breaks, and thus risks of heat stress differ between those working only in open areas (74%) and those working in forests and open areas (26%). • Increasing temperatures affect the working behavior of 98% of our sample via greater heat exposure and more frequent breaks. • Those working in both forests and open areas more are impacted more by hotter temper…
A longitudinal analysis of resource mobilisation among forced and voluntary return migrants in Mexico
The rise in U.S. deportations has resulted in a growing number of studies focused on the reintegration experiences of these migrants in their home communities. Based on interviews with deportees shortly after their arrival home, these studies paint a picture of economic gloom, finding that deportees are too frequently stigmatized by governments and employers and consequently unemployed or working on the margins of their home economies. In contras…
Beyond deportation
With over 11 million undocumented immigrants currently residing in the U.S.A and more attempting to cross the border each day, the responsibility to enforce U.S. immigration law in as fair and huma
Social effects of mass deportations by the United States government, 2000-10
Interviews with deportees in El Salvador and Mexico and with immigrants in the United States indicate that expanded US enforcement policies are straining transnational families and imposing fear on immigrant communities. Expanded enforcement is removing long-term settlers with strong kinship ties to the United States. Through various strategies, some immigrants attempt to cope with new enforcement operations, while others involuntarily return to …
