KeywordsResearch AreasCultural theory, Environmental change, Geography, Media ![]() Dr Stephen JacksonMy research investigates catastrophic narratives about climate change. Presently, this includes analysis of reports from defense organizations which are constructing scenarios about and preparing for "climate-driven" conflict. Guiding my critique of such narratives is an underlying concern for the consequences of describing climate change (and nature) as something we are "at war" with.
