Artificial intelligence and climate migration equity
In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the number of people displaced by climate-related damage to the physical and social environment. These migrants are more exposed to climate-related environmental damage than others and more vulnerable to its social and health impacts because they possess fewer resources for mitigation and adaptation. Emerging artificial intelligence (AI) tools and approaches may help improve understanding …
Climate change, young people, and the IPCC
This commentary suggests that undertaking citizen science research with young people has the potential to play a significant role in contributing to the IPPC and related UN research and policy processes around climate change. Further, citizen science engagement can educate and empower children and young people in and through research by involving wider communities and groups in data collection, communication, and engagement. A persuasive body of …
Anticipatory Regulation
The UK has incorporated a net-zero emissions target into national legislation. A range of Greenhouse Gas Removal (GGR) options will likely play a key role in the government's strategy toward meeting this goal. Governance frameworks will need to be developed to support GGR development and manage the potential impacts, particularly those on the diverse local communities where the various options will be deployed. This research examines the UK's exp…

Shale Resources, Parks Conservation, and Contested Public Lands in North Dakota’s Theodore Roosevelt National Park
This case study analyzes the potential impacts of weakening the National Park Service’s (NPS) “9B Regulations” enacted in 1978, which established a federal regulatory framework governing hydrocarbon rights and extraction to protect natural resources within the parks. We focus on potential risks to national parklands resulting from Executive Orders 13771—Reducing Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs [1]—and 13783—Promoting Energy Independen…
Public opposition to shale gas extraction in Algeria
The UK net-zero target
Shale, Quakes, and High Stakes
High-volume hydraulic fracturing combined with horizontal drilling has “revolutionized” the United States’ oil and gas industry by allowing extraction of previously inaccessible oil and gas trapped in shale rock [1]. Although the United States has extracted shale gas in different states for several decades, the United Kingdom is in the early stages of developing its domestic shale gas resources, in the hopes of replicating the United States’ comm…
Eco-Citizen Science for Social Good
This article examines the benefits and challenges of engaging children in environmental citizen science, defined as science conducted by nonspecialists under the direction of professional scientists, to promote social good. Citizen science addresses two central elements of the social good model—environmental justice and inclusion with particular attention to diversity in age, gender, race/ethnicity, and social class in addressing environmental in…
Environmental Impact Assessments and Hydraulic Fracturing
Although the United States has been stimulating well production with hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”)1 since the 1940s [1], high-volume hydraulic fracturing (HVHF) combined with horizontal drilling is a relatively recent [2, 3] development with potential to adversely impact human health [4], environment [5], and water resources [6], with uncertainty about impacts and gaps in the data on HVHF compared to conventional drilling techniques [7]. Part…

How much is enough? Approaches to public participation in shale gas regulation across England, France, and Algeria
China and the geopolitics of rare earths
China and the geopolitics of rare earths is an important and timely analysis of China's monopoly on rare earth minerals and the 2010 rare-earth crisis. Kalantzakos presents a thorough analysis of the rare-earth crisis and explains how the events that elevated the crisis to global significance are open to different interpretations. For example, she explains that ‘while some analysts and policymakers securitized the problem and raised a battle cry …
Burn out
Dieter Helm's Burn out is an important contribution to the conversation on the coming ‘energy revolution’ and its likely impact on global economies. Until 2014, we appeared to be facing a global energy crisis driven by skyrocketing oil prices and insatiable energy demand. Dropping oil prices and technological developments are signs that the age of fossil fuel is ending, according to Helm. Helm identifies three ‘predictable surprises’ that are the…
