This session includes work on environmental inequalities in diverse empirical contexts, from deforestation in the Amazon to flooding in Bangladesh to the home insurance market in the United States. Featured research explores how the effects of environmental hazards and climate risks intersect with social forces and institutions such as gender, migration, housing, and education. Papers additionally analyze the ecological implications of cross-national consumption disparities and the distribution of political and economic power.
