Book Details
Table of Contents
Mind the gap: climate change, minorities and indigenous peoples
Minorities tend to live in places that are worst hit by the impacts of climate change
their poverty exacerbates their vulnerability
The close relationship of many indigenous peoples and some minorities to their environments makes them especially sensitive to the impacts of climate change
and also to the cultivation of biofuels, which are being presented as part of the 'solution' to global warming
The biofuels connection
Discrimination against minorities and indigenous peoples makes it harder for them to cope with the impacts of climate change
Opportunities for minorities and indigenous peoples to be heard
Conclusions.
