Book review: Thinking like a climate : governing a city in times of environmental change by Hannah Knox

Karvonen, Andrew LU (2022) In LSE Review of Books
Abstract
In Thinking Like a Climate: Governing a City in Times of Environmental Change, Hannah Knox offers a new ethnographic study of the local dynamics of climate change, focusing on the city of Manchester. This detailed analysis of local climate politics illustrates the need for a wholesale reconfiguration of how we think about human-nature relations and act collectively to make the world a better place, writes Andrew Karvonen.
