This was the result of a multidisciplinary team working through the USGCRP process last year.

Understanding why some groups are especially vulnerable to climate change impacts is therefore an important step toward developing effective climate change response measures. Differential vulnerability to comparable levels of physical change is primarily a function of social rather than physical factors. However, scientific and technical approaches to climate change continue to dominate, leaving the underlying social drivers of vulnerability largely unaddressed. In a review published in *WIREs Climate Change*, an interdisciplinary group of social scientists aimed to help address this issue by highlighting the key processes that underpin uneven vulnerability to climate change. -- Timmons Roberts @timmonsroberts Ittleson Professor of Environmental Studies and Sociology Director, the Climate and Development Lab www.climatedevlab.brown.edu Brown University https://vivo.brown.edu/display/jr17 Non-Resident Senior Fellow, Brookings Institution http://www.brookings.edu/experts/robertst -- Timmons Roberts @timmonsroberts Ittleson Professor of Environmental Studies and Sociology Director, the Climate and Development Lab www.climatedevlab.brown.edu Brown University https://vivo.brown.edu/display/jr17 Non-Resident Senior Fellow, Brookings Institution http://www.brookings.edu/experts/robertst -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "gep-ed" group.
