"Climate change means different things to different people in different places. It does not have one cause and one solution, but many causes and many solutions. In Reframing Climate Change, O’Lear and Dalby have brought together an impressive group of political geographers and scientists who undermine the conventional singular narrative of climate change – ‘the plan’ as some have dubbed it – before helpfully opening up different ways of framing what is at stake. It is only with such a pluralist account of climate change that the business of politics can get done: to expose, argue over and decide between different visions people have of how the world should be."Mike Hulme, Professor of Climate and Culture in the Department of Geography, King’s College London, UK"This book is essential reading for those who see or sense that climate change is more than an environmental issue. The authors argue that it is critical to challenge conventional framings of both problems and solutions by bringing in politics, power and new perspectives. Reframing Climate Change unravels some key assumptions that have the potential to transform approaches to security in the Anthropocene."Karen O'Brien, Professor in the Department of Sociology and Human Geography, University of Oslo, Norway
