LeducOttawa :University of Ottawa Press,2010Baltimore, Md. :Project MUSE, 2012©20101 online resource (288 p.)9780776607504 0776607502 Includes bibliographical references (pages 239-255) and index.Endangered knowledge -- Sila wisdom for a time of change -- Researching Gaia's uncertain climate -- Canadian call for a global conscience -- Colonial apologies from Canada? -- American fuel for a global apocalypse -- Making carbon confessions to Sedna -- Our climatic challenge."Every day brings new headlines about climate change as politicians debate how to respond, scientists offer new data, and skeptics critique the validity of the research. To step outside these scientific and political debates, Timothy Leduc engages with various Inuit understandings of northern climate change. What he learns is that today's climate changes are not only affecting our environments, but also our cultures. By focusing on the changes currently occurring in the north, he highlights the challenges being posed to Western climate research, Canadian politics and traditional Inuit knowledge.Climate, Culture, Change sheds light on the cultural challenges posed by northern warming and proposes an intercultural response that is demonstrated by the blending of Inuit and Western perspectives."NATURE / Environmental Conservation & ProtectionbisacshSOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / Native American StudiesbisacshElectronic books.
