Climate Change and Political Science

Session Submission Type: Roundtable

Session Description

Climate change may be the most important political challenge of our time, and the number of scholars who work in this area is growing rapidly. They draw on a wide range of methods, and address both the sources of climate change and its consequences; the problems of mitigation and adaptation; and questions at the local, national, and global levels. This roundtable will discuss the profound challenges and opportunities that characterize work in this area, and how we can support the next generation of scholars.
