How do communities that host fossil fuel extraction industries experience, negotiate, and adapt to climate change? This workshop aims to bring together researchers whose considerations of environmental justice, climate politics, and adaptation and resilience are grounded in sites of fossil fuel extraction (what we call ‘carbon communities’.

Climate Change in Carbon Communities
By doing so, we hope to ask some of the ‘big questions’ of energy transition and climate crisis through the communities most intimately affected by fossil fuel extraction. Ultimately, we aim to collectively understand the significance of fossil fuel hosting communities for evaluating the contemporary politics of carbon.
