Societal aspects of changing cold environments / Gita Laidler.
Title: | Societal aspects of changing cold environments / Gita Laidler. |
Author(s): | Laidler, Gita. |
Date: | 2012. |
Publisher: | Oxford: Wiley-Blackwell |
In: | Changing cold environments : a Canadian perspective. (2012.), |
Abstract: | Highlights ways in which changing cold environments may influence northern livelihoods, socio-economic conditions, health and well-being, economic development and governance approaches. Emphasizing usage by northern Aboriginal peoples, summarizes cryospheric components: permafrost (and related vegetation), snow, river and lake ice, and sea ice. Briefly reviews local observations and implications of change from northern perspectives, and their use in lobbying efforts related to Indigenous rights. Focuses on changing sea ice conditions, and implications on local (Inuit hunting and harvesting, travel safety, mixed economies and adaptive responses) and broader (Arctic marine shipping, wildlife conservation, Canadian sovereignty) scales. Discusses implications of changing cryosphere for northern governance in contexts of land-claim implementation and decision-making, urging that northern peoples be close partners in latter. |
