The wellbeing of Eswatini's impoverished rural communities is impacted both directly and indirectly by the insufficiency or, in certain cases, the complete absence of these essential resources. The nation is seeing a decline in rainfall, increased water stress, soil loss and degradation, decreased crop yields, increased livestock losses, more frequent and severe droughts and floods, and an increase in pest infestations, among other effects of climate change. To better understand the social, cultural, economic, political, and scientific aspects of climate change adaptation in Eswatini as they relate to the food, energy, and water (FEW) nexus, this study applied a multi-level transdisciplinary value chain analysis approach. It then makes recommendations for national adaptation strategies that are meant to build resilient rural communities. The FEW nexus refers to the complex relationships between the availability of food, energy, and water for both micro and macroeconomic applications. The multidisciplinary value chain analysis of the FEW nexus considers redundancy in activities while clarifying trade-offs and mutually beneficial interactions between sectors at both the macro and microeconomic levels. To gain a better understanding of how rural communities in Eswatini perceive the relationship between FEW issues and climate change, we conducted two focus group discussions and a survey in five of the country's four ecological regions' most vulnerable rural communities. The results emphasized the trade-offs associated with the FEW nexus that are hindered by the sectoral climate \"silos\" that are in place today. The findings also identified strategies for adaptation aimed at preserving the resilience of rural communities in the face of climate change.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":313,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science & Policy","volume":"173 ","pages":"Article 104230"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145157338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper focuses on three significant but often overlooked contributors: paint particles, textile fibres, and tire wear particles (TWP). Together, these sources account for over 25 % of global MP emissions, nearly 3 million tonnes annually, yet they are rarely singled out in research or regulation. Each presents unique analytical and regulatory challenges due to their complex compositions, diffuse emissions, and strong ties to daily life. We enumerate current knowledge on their environmental pathways, emission estimates, and detection methods, highlighting the need for multi-method analytical approaches to overcome sampling and identification limitations. Monitoring remains constrained by technical barriers, particularly for pigment interference in paint particles, fibre contamination, and the heterogeneous nature of TWP. Despite their significant impact, policy responses remain limited. The current draft of the Global Plastics Treaty acknowledges these sources under the general MP category but lacks specific measures. Effective mitigation will require enhanced regulatory frameworks, product redesign, expanded Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), and greater investment in innovation. Moreover, system-level interventions, societal and behavioral changes, such as improved public transport can help reduce TWP at source. In addressing these \"hidden in plain sight\" pollutants, this paper calls for coordinated national and global action to reduce their release and integrate them into broader MP policy agendas. Only through such targeted efforts can we ensure these overlooked pollutants no longer escape meaningful regulation and environmental accountability.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":313,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science & Policy","volume":"173 ","pages":"Article 104217"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145120674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, our perspective shifts focus towards the underexplored potential of the arts in contributing to the scientific inquiry itself, that is, the role the arts can play in the scientific study and analysis of the world or its views. To this end, art is presented here as a means for eliciting diverse forms of knowledge, including experiential and lay knowledge, and for advancing more participatory, decolonial, and culturally sensitive social-environmental research practices. Through carefully selected examples using written and visual arts, this paper explores how art is used and proposes a framework to understand the role it has taken during the scientific knowledge production process. This paper concludes that art has great potential to enhance scientific inquiry by opening the space for alternative forms of knowledge that are usually marginalised or are simply more difficult to access through traditional means. We suggest that this newly produced social capital has important implications for the construction of more just, relevant and legitimate social and environmental policies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":313,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science & Policy","volume":"172 ","pages":"Article 104224"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145118691","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a bibliometric analysis of 384 Scopus-indexed publications (2002–present), we trace the evolution of gender-climate research through keyword mapping and thematic visualization in Biblioshiny and VOSviewer. Our findings identify three developmental phases: the Gender Foundation Phase, which established equality frameworks; the Gender Advancement Phase integrating gender-responsive strategies; and the Gender Transformation Phase, emphasizing women's leadership in climate governance. Despite progress, critical gaps remain in documenting and leveraging women's real-world experiences in climate adaptation. Emphasizing gender-equitable approaches is essential for fostering inclusive governance structures that position women as leaders, ensuring effective, equitable climate solutions driven by their unique perspectives and resilience. We advocate for future research to bridge these gaps by connecting environmental science with policy and societal impacts.

Yet, there is an ambivalence within the literature concerning the value for Indigenous peoples. Some scholars maintain that CBM programs replicate and reinforce colonial political inequalities while others suggest that such programs can and do support Indigenous self-determination. In this study, I explore such questions through empirical engagement with case studies of two established Indigenous-led programs in Nunavut, Canada, and Greenland that involve the collection of Indigenous Knowledge for use in decision-making. I contribute to the field by examining monitoring as a process through which knowledge and governance are co-constituted through politically unequal relationships. Considering this, I argue that Indigenous-led CBM can support self-determination in environmental governance given the right conditions. I identify three factors that are fundamental to achieving this. First, explicit legal acknowledgement of Indigenous rights, authority, and knowledge systems is key to mobilizing CBM data. Second, while the fundamental goal of such programs is to enhance the use of knowledge in decision-making, Indigenous leadership and data governance are important safeguards against extractive knowledge production. Finally, a theory of power is necessary to critically analyse both the directly observable and more subtle ways in which power influences the potential for CBM programs to promote Indigenous self-determination.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":313,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science & Policy","volume":"172 ","pages":"Article 104215"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145045929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Terrestrial proposals for solar radiation modification, or geoengineering, have been the focus of most research, but suffer from the greater risks and uncertainties that arise from deliberate large-scale intervention inside Earth’s systems. Space-based geoengineering methods suggest relatively safer and more predictable possibilities by altering the solar constant outside of the Earth’s atmosphere. To determine the possible contributions of these methods to climate policy – and to other co-beneficial aspirations in outer space – there is a clear need to responsibly advance research. The key to this lies with accounting for societal values and interests in evaluating which methods to take forward (if any), and in developing appropriate governance arrangements. In this article I review what we know from the very limited societal evaluations of space-based geoengineering so far, identifying thematic concerns around risks, naturalness, governance, delay, feasibility, cost, benefits, and participation, and set out a range of future priorities for responsible research. I then examine the implications of these evaluations for space-based geoengineering governance, considering the roles of global research networks, precautionary regulations, high level principles, multilateral processes, and global engagement. I conclude by reflecting on the importance of framing effects in societal engagements with space-based geoengineering, before proposing a research agenda to broaden out and open them up.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":313,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science & Policy","volume":"172 ","pages":"Article 104213"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145045941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Empirical analyses of boundary organizations are relatively sparse, and little is known about how people involved in boundary organizations are navigating this interface. We look to the Colorado River Basin, where multiple boundary organizations have been established in response to challenges along the river. Drawing on key informant interviews with practitioners in federally-initiated organizations, we ask: what is the role of science in these organizations, and what are the challenges that they face at the SPPI? Practitioners in boundary organizations see science as important to better understand the system, inform and modify management actions, and evaluate whether management actions are working. At the same time, practitioners describe the challenge of adapting scientific activities to changing environmental conditions, and difficulties navigating uncertainties. Further, the structure of an organization limits its scope at the SPPI, and the ways that decisions are made can delay policy impacts. Despite these challenges, boundary organizations in the Basin serve as key intermediaries for knowledge exchange, fostering relationships, and working towards more integrated approaches to water governance. By examining these dynamics through the perspectives of practitioners, our study provides valuable insights into both the successes and limitations of the SPPI. In doing so, we contribute to broader discussions on how boundary organizations can enhance their role in building the SPPI.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":313,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science & Policy","volume":"172 ","pages":"Article 104212"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145045939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Public support could also increase pressure on decision-makers to act on an assembly’s recommendations. Given the small numbers of participants typically found in CAs, implementation of their recommendations is more legitimate if broader public support is secured. Research to date has focused on citizens’ assemblies generally, rather than CAs specifically. Given the complexity and importance of the climate issue this gap needs to be addressed. Moreover, much of the existing research is based on experiments with hypothetical results. Research focused on high profile natural cases is therefore essential. To fill these gaps, we assess the relationship between CAs and the public through an analysis of Climate Assembly UK and Scotland’s Climate Assembly. These are two of the first national CAs and attracted media coverage. We conducted public opinion surveys on both cases. We find that public awareness of both CAs was low.
