Abstract

The severe impact of global warming and technical solutions to it have always grabbed the media’s attention. Unfortunately, the socio-economic challenges of climate change that expose marginalised people to greater vulnerabilities and create conflicts and weaken macroeconomic performance seldom make headlines. The technocratic fixes, important as they are, are not enough to address the vulnerability of the poor in an era of increasing climate change challenges.
