This book uniquely focuses on community psychology and climate justice. Climate change in general has been an area of increasing interest to psychologists in recent years, particularly in its cognitive, perceptual, and affective aspects. Because communities are often on the forefront of resistance to the deleterious effects of climate change, psychologists have become aware of the ramifications of large scale resource developments, toxic contamination, and dispossession, to name a few. The current conceptualizations and approaches to climate change, however, are not adequate to today's needs. Addressing this gap, this volume emphasize the politics of social justice, going beyond internal psychological variables. it explores the legacy of colonialism, highlights the needs of indigenous peoples, and takes an expansive interdisciplinary stance including critical theory, queer theory, feminism.
