Their new book, published by Edward Elgar Publishing, "provides a compelling demonstration of the deeply gendered and unequal effects of the climate emergency, alongside the urgent need for a feminist perspective to expose and address these structural political, social and economic inequalities".

It features chapters written by Meghan Campbell ("A Greener CEDAW"), Sandra Fredman ("The World of Work: A Green and Feminist Future") and another of our faculty members, Shreya Atrey ("The inequality of climate change and the difference it makes").

Feminist Frontiers in Climate Justice is available open access and in hardback format.
