Offers a guided tour of basic climate science, then holds up a gender lens to find
out what has been overlooked in popular discussion, research, and policy debates.
Nagel argues that, around the world, more women than men die in climate-related natural
disasters; the history of science and war are intimately interwoven masculine occupations
and preoccupations; and conservative men and their interests drive the climate change
denial machine. She also points out that climate policymakers who embrace big science
approaches and solutions to climate change are predominantly male with an ideology
of perpetual economic growth, and an agenda that marginalizes the interests of women
and developing economies. Nagel uses case studies to highlight the sometimes surprising
differential, gendered impacts of climate changes. --From publisher description
