This paper examines how hydrogen futures are envisioned at the Port of Milford Haven (PMH) in west Wales, a focal point for United Kingdom and Welsh hydrogen ambitions. Drawing on Buck's (2022) concept of ‘double unseeing’, we use an interpretive, mixed-method design combining documentary analysis, digital ethnography and deliberative workshops to explore how experts and residents construct distinct but interdependent visions of place, risk and transition. Expert narratives emphasise industrial regeneration and geophysical interdependence, whereas community participants foreground ecological and social care rooted in coastal identity. Across these differences, we identify glimpses of recognition—partial alignments that reveal opportunities for more responsive and co-creative forms of governance. We argue that recognising such moments requires moving beyond distributive framings of just transition towards a relational ethics of shared reliance, attentive to the social and emotional infrastructures that sustain both industrial and community futures.","PeriodicalId":44089,"journal":{"name":"Geo-Geography and Environment","volume":"13 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2026-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/geo2.70101","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148616026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Disabled people—including an estimated 16% of the global population—are disproportionately impacted by these risks, in part through the impacts of different impairments and the association with wider disadvantage, and also through eco-ableism; the failure to consider disabled people's needs and insights in climate adaptation decision-making, or to recognise that responses to climate change are making life harder for many disabled people. In this paper, we draw on a specific regional focus (the United Kingdom) to highlight how such exclusion constitutes a form of epistemic injustice; a failure to recognise, affirm or embed disabled people's knowledges in climate adaptation efforts. We share findings from an ongoing collaborative programme of interdisciplinary research that is examining opportunities for responses to the climate crisis to build fairer communities, building on the priorities and insights of disabled people. The wider study includes local and national law and policy reviews, alongside in-depth qualitative and arts-based research with people who are disabled, d/Deaf, neurodivergent and people with long-term health conditions within three case study cities. This paper focuses on the findings of interviews and analysis conducted between February 2024 and March 2026 in the first two case study cities: Bristol and Glasgow, United Kingdom. In the paper, we discuss five conditions of epistemic injustice—the stakeholder, socio-economic, prejudice, disadvantage and epistemic conditions—to provide granular insights into how the knowledges of disabled people are being marginalised in ways that are increasingly detrimental to collective societal efforts to build just, sustainable and climate-safe futures.","PeriodicalId":44089,"journal":{"name":"Geo-Geography and Environment","volume":"13 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2026-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/geo2.70100","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148496771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim is to reveal the heterogeneity in the quantity and spatial distribution of greenspaces in Chinese campuses and to analyse the factors influencing the inequality of campus greenspaces, thereby providing strategic recommendations for the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals. The research findings indicate that primary and secondary schools have a lower average area and proportion of greenspaces compared to universities. Specifically, university teachers and students enjoy the largest per capita greenspace area, while primary school teachers and students have the smallest per capita greenspace area. Moreover, more than half of the schools show a downward trend in greenspace area. The study also reveals significant heterogeneity in greenspace coverage and per capita greenspace area among different regions and provinces. The results of variance analysis show that the greenspace coverage and per capita greenspace area within schools and universities are significantly lower than those outside areas of campuses. Furthermore, it is found that there is a high level of inequality in per capita greenspace area in urban areas and per capita greenspace area of teachers and students. This study further explores the driving factors affecting the inequality of campus greenspaces. Increasing the per capita greenspace area for teachers and students and the proportion of campus greenspace can alleviate the inequality in greenspaces for teachers and students. An increase in per capita gross regional product, educational expenditure and urban greenspace areas may require more policy support to ensure the fair distribution of per capita greenspace in campuses, thereby alleviating campus greenspace inequality.","PeriodicalId":44089,"journal":{"name":"Geo-Geography and Environment","volume":"13 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/geo2.70098","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148357936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In doing so, it articulates the diverse practices these actors have mobilised to enact environmental governance so that Seychelles could turn from being a ‘small island state’ to a ‘big ocean state’—practices that offer a glimpse into the geopolitical improvisations of environmental state making at the margins. Based on 12-month fieldwork in the country, the paper empirically maps how Seychellois state officials have repurposed some of the definitional features that debt restructuring-based Blue Economy projects now exhibit globally—exemplified by moving from Marine Protected Areas to a Marine Spatial Plan, the definition of a 30% protection target in deep waters, or the scripting of their own oceanic vocabulary—to shift the narrative from being a Small Island Developing State (SIDS) towards a Big Ocean State (BOS[S]). Ultimately, the improvised (ocean) state emerging from this account serves to historically situate the comings-together of an expanding debt-fuelled Blue Economy, while articulating novel geopolitical terrains where power asymmetries are jostled, subjectivities and spaces are performatively brought into being, and environmental state-making is tentatively (re)produced.","PeriodicalId":44089,"journal":{"name":"Geo-Geography and Environment","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://rgs-ibg.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/geo2.70072","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147569427","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, despite this growing importance, the scientific literature often treats the relationship between rest and core temperature simplistically, viewing rest as a passive recovery tool essential for cooling the body and maintaining productivity. We frame this dominant approach as the ‘recovery-productivity calculus’ that underpins current debates on rest-based heat interventions, such as the Threshold Limit Values that allocate rest schedules in response to heat risk. This paper presents a critical review of rest under heat stress, arguing that the recovery-productivity calculus overlooks the dynamic, subjective and political nature of rest in the context of heat stress. This oversight (or lacuna) stems from the history of modern heat stress research, where the dominance of military-based research and laboratory studies replaced field-based studies with workers, influencing insights on occupational heat stress. Furthermore, heat research bears parallels to the historical study of industrial fatigue, highlighting how productivity concerns may become dominant. Drawing from critical heat studies and the anthropology of work, we incorporate an analysis of power and subjectivity into the study of rest, considering two forms: planned breaks and self-pacing. Our focus is to develop the question of rest not as secondary or residual within the heat-work relation—as productivity-recovery centred framings construe—but as a nuanced practice that actively informs the success of heat governance. As rest becomes an ever more important tool in the climate-changed workplace, this paper provides a basis to understand the practices that underpin its heat mitigation capacity and seeks to inform the effective uptake of rest-based interventions.","PeriodicalId":44089,"journal":{"name":"Geo-Geography and Environment","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://rgs-ibg.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/geo2.70070","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147566560","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
