Abstract
ABSTRACT This essay considers the possibilities of re-thinking what a climate change observatory might be. Rather than reproducing science as usual, climate change observatories assembled with faith institutions, might open new potential for experimental environmental knowledge practices. The essay examines these ideas through an account of an experimental environmental observatory based in churches in the Solomon Islands.
期刊介绍:
The Scottish Geographical Journal is the learned publication of the Royal Scottish Geographical Society and is a continuation of the Scottish Geographical Magazine, first published in 1885. The Journal was relaunched in its present format in 1999. The Journal is international in outlook and publishes scholarly articles of original research from any branch of geography and on any part of the world, while at the same time maintaining a distinctive interest in and concern with issues relating to Scotland. “The Scottish Geographical Journal mixes physical and human geography in a way that no other international journal does. It deploys a long heritage of geography in Scotland to address the most pressing issues of today."
