BIG Podcast #39 & #40 — Borders and Climate Change
featuring Simon Dalby (Professor Emeritus, Wilfrid Laurier University)
In this episode, host Ben Perrier is joined by Professor Emeritus Simon Dalby. Together, they explore the intersection of borders and climate change in the Anthropocene era, a period when humans are profoundly shaping the planet. They analyze how global warming is redefining physical and political borders. Climate effects, environmental security, planetary boundaries, cross-border mobilities, policy innovations are at the heart of the discussion. The Anthropocene requires us to rethink geographical and jurisdictional boundaries in the face of ecological crises. The first part of the podcast mainly focuses on the Anthropocene and climate change.
In the second part of the podcast, the pair examines prospective scenarios for addressing climate challenges within the Anthropocene, an epoch marked by profound human influence on Earth’s systems. Together, they investigate strategies to anticipate and navigate disruptions to political and urban systems, and territorial boundaries driven by climate change, focusing on on future scenarios in a climate-disrupted world and illuminates pathways for adaptation and offers critical insights into sustainable futures.
