Description
Book SynopsisUnder the Weather explores the relationship between human mobility and severe weather exacerbated by the climate emergency. Offering an ecological approach to mobilities, Sodero argues that mobility can be reimagined to work with, rather than against, the climate in ways that also benefit the health, education, and economy of communities.
Trade Review'This is a brilliantly written and articulate exploration of how communications, transportation and exchanges are affected in the era of climate change and how quickly we need to adapt our 'vital mobilities' to these challenges. This fascinating book brings the subject to life. Recommended reading for anyone interested in disasters, climate change and medical responses. " Bertrand Taithe, professor of cultural history and past director of the Humanitarian and Conflict Response Institute, University of Manchester
"[Sodero]'s puts a name to the vexing complexities of a global circulation of people and things embedded in local, regional, and global ecosystems disrupted by those very movements. Climatic disruptions—in Canada and elsewhere—show no signs of abating any time soon, and an ecological mobilities approach that helps us learn productive lessons from those productions will certainly be an important part of an effective response."
