Kivalina: A Climate Change Story by Christine Shearer
Requirements: PDF Reader, 1.45MB
Overview: Warming Arctic temperatures have been making coastal areas of Alaska increasingly uninhabitable. In 2008 the small Alaska Native village of Kivalina filed a legal claim against some of the world’s largest fossil fuel companies for damaging their homeland and creating a false debate around climate change. Academic and former journalist Christine Shearer explores the history leading up to the lawsuit, its connections to disaster management and adaptation, and its relationship to past misinformation campaigns involving lead, asbestos, and tobacco. Kivalina’s struggle for safe relocation, the book argues, is part of our common struggle to acknowledge and address climate change before it is too late.
