Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. Climate change is the defining challenge of our time. It poses an existential threat to humanity and the planet, as well as a profound social and economic crisis for millions of workers and communities. To address this challenge, we need a radical transformation of our energy system, our infrastructure, our industries, and our consumption patterns. We need a just transition that ensures a fair and equitable future for all.This transition will require massive investments in clean and renewable energy sources, public transportation, energy efficiency, waste management, ecosystem restoration, and adaptation measures. It will also create millions of new jobs across sectors and regions jobs that can contribute to solving the climate crisis while improving the lives and livelihoods of workers and their families. However, not all climate jobs are created equally. Some may be precarious, low-paid, unsafe, or socially undesirable. Some may displace or disrupt existing workers and communities, especially those dependent on fossil fuels and other high-emitting sectors. Some may reproduce or exacerbate existing inequalities based on class, race, gender, or geography. Therefore, it is not enough to create more climate jobs we need to create better climate jobs. We need to ensure that climate jobs are secure, community sustaining, and democratic, and that they advance the goals of social and environmental justice.This volume brings together researchers, activists, and practitioners from different disciplines and regions to explore the concept, potential, and challenges of climate jobs. Drawing on case studies from various sectors, the contributors examine how climate jobs can be created, protected, and expanded in the context of the global climate crisis and the changing world of work. They also discuss how climate jobs can be integrated into broader strategies for climate action and social transformation. The volume aims to provide a comprehensive and critical perspective on climate jobs and to inspire further debate and action on this vital topic.
