Based on semi-structured interviews to relevant policymakers and stakeholders and on the study of planning documents and greening policies, the research identifies the main actors who are involved in green planning and management in the city and in the metropolitan area. By analysing their green management and planning roles, economic resources and greening visions and priorities, the study depicts five coexisting green governance models. In particular, the research highlights the decreasing influence of public institutions in green planning and management and the rising relevance of private-public collaborations. These dynamics of green governance may affect the generation and the distribution of ecosystem services. On the one hand, greening in private-led regeneration processes tend toward recreational and final ecosystem services, aiming to raise land values. On the other hand, the civic projects of afforestation have evolved in territorial initiatives that go beyond the mere objective of implementing new green spaces, looking at broader planning themes – i.e. soft mobility and social welfare – demanding a stronger metropolitan coordination.KEYWORDS: Urban green spacesgovernanceecosystem servicespolitical ecologyurban regenerationMilan Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Informed consent statementInformed consent was obtained from all subjects involved in the study.In accordance with the Italian and European legislation, the research was exempt from approval of the Institutional Ethical Committee.

Viability depends on farmers accessing key resources (e.g. land), typically through markets, but also through social relationships. In this article, I offer a theory of how agroecological farmers’ social infrastructure can enable resource access. ‘Social mycorrhiza’ uses ecological mycorrhiza as a metaphor to conceptualize how individuals with simultaneous market interests and movement-based values (like alternative farmers) create social networks that facilitate resource access, in circumstances where they trust each other will act according to both their economic interests and their social and environmental values, over time. Social mycorrhiza highlights cooptation – when social and environmental values are sacrificed for economic interests – and burnout – when economic viability is sacrificed forsocial and environmental values. I illustrate social mycorrhiza using a case study of alternative (organic and agroecological) farmers in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. In short, social mycorrhiza describes the social relational infrastructure of agroecological farming economies.KEYWORDS: Agrarian questionagroecologyfarm viabilitypolitical economysocial movementscommunity and economic developmentfood justice AcknowledgmentsI thank the farmers and other alternative food system leaders I interviewed for this study.

Similarly, the Vermont Healthy Soils Coalition uses the term ‘social mycelium’ to describe social ties in their network (Vermont Healthy Soils Coalition Citation2020). Ecologically speaking, ‘mycelium’ refers to a collection of hyphae, described below. In contrast to this use of social mycelium, I use social mycorrhiza to describe a more specific type of social relationship that involves resource flows between at least two entities. Whereas ‘mycelium’ refers to the part of a fungus that delivers resources, ‘mycorrhiza’ refers to the relationship between fungi and plants where they can mutualistically exchange resources between each other under certain conditions, also described below.2.

Predicated on two and half months of fieldwork in Bhopal – consisting of 60 interviews with gas and water victims and activists, archival research, and observation of sites and events – the paper specifically explains how the Bhopal Movement, the longest-running social movement in post-colonial India, has become an exemplar of what I call ‘unyielding humanity,’ one that rejects conciliatory posturing and ad-hoc solutions, constraining states and corporations alike to meaningfully address the ongoing social and environmental mutilation of Bhopal. Underlining the agency, targets, means, objectives, and determinations of the subaltern people, the paper illustrates how this women-led movement poses triumphant challenges to dominant narratives by focusing on the politics of long-term, intergenerational suffering. Findings indicate that prolonged marginalization can give rise to distinct forms of politics, diverging not only from labor and identity politics but also from various environmental justice movements that have been theorized emphasizing primarily material, visible, and immediate consequences. The paper holds implications for social and environmental justice struggles worldwide.KEYWORDS: Unyielding humanitynew political societyBhopalcritical social and environmental justiceUnion Carbide and Dow Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1.

Recently, Indian farmers marched to New Delhi with the skulls of farmers who committed suicide due to a devastating loan burden. In 2007, in Nandigram, West Bengal, 14 people were killed, and many women were raped to protect their land from the corporation. Repression to Narmada Bachao activists is well known. Antinuclear activism by fishermen in India was also met with state repression. Relatedly, Bhopal survivors’ 2011 Rail Blockade Movement met with massive attacks on women and older adults.3.

I analyze media coverage of Bears Ears National Monument from December 2016 to December 2017 to observe the effects of this framing on elimination projects of the settler state in public land conflicts.

How do influencers popularize zero waste lifestyle practices that counter the dominant consumption norms? Are their strategies successful? This article examines influencers’ lifestyle advocacy as social performance, focusing on their scripts and visual presentations to social media audience. Based on content analysis of 250 Instagram posts, this article uses a cultural sociology lens to analyze zero waste influencers’ strategies and the audience responses. Problematization of wasteful consumption norms and legitimization of zero waste alternatives through demonstrating its feasibility, attractiveness, and integration with socio-political concerns are four prominent strategies. Zero waste influencers employ performance elements such as textual and visual scripts, means of symbolic production, and mise-en-scene to enhance authenticity and mobilize zero waste practices. Meanwhile, insufficient accountability of corporate waste culprits, limited representativeness of the privileged influencers, and contradictory embeddedness in consumer culture still threaten the legitimacy of their performance. This article centers the analysis of sustainable lifestyle movement leaders and their social media presentation, which have been little discussed but increasingly important. It also provides practical strategies for promoting sustainable lifestyle on social media.KEYWORDS: zero wastelifestyle movementsustainable lifestyleconsumer culturesocial performancesocial media influencerconsumption AcknowledgementI express deep gratitude to the anonymous reviewers for their detailed and insightful comments.

Yet little is known about how people in this region perceive these environmental problems and the factors that influence their perceptions. This article analyzes surveys conducted by the Arab Barometer with 13,850 people across 12 Arab countries in 2018–19. The focus is on public perceptions about water pollution, air pollution, and trash. About 91% of respondents said that water pollution is a very serious or serious problem. About 89% and 73% feel the same way about trash and air pollution, respectively. Perceptions about environmental quality are mainly shaped by a person’s age, educational background, financial status, and how they view the current economic situation. Although perceptions about water and trash are directly connected to a national environmental quality measure, they are unconnected to specific measurements of clean water access and sanitation quality. Furthermore, perceptions about air quality are unconnected to any general or specific (national- or local-level) measurements. Instead, a person’s age, gender, educational background, financial status, and minority status are better predictors of how much they view air quality to be a problem. These findings shed light on the topic of environmental concern in a comparatively understudied area of the world, highlighting the ways that individual, local, and national factors shape how the average person evaluates environmental problems.KEYWORDS: EnvironmentpollutionArab worldpublicsurveys Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1.

In this article, we ask why, despite a well-coordinated response and a relatively steady federal funding stream, WNS has continued to spread with lethal results? To answer this question, we bring together the tools of political ecologists studying health and diseases with social scientific observations on the impacts of lock-ins on social change. We argue that while federal legislation such as the Endangered Species Act (ESA) allowed researchers to quickly recognize the emergence of WNS, the ESA’s focus and directives to protect individual species constrained the ability of scientists to more rapidly understand both the fungus causing WNS and the broader ecosystem dynamics in which the disease can flourish. In addition, while the ESA was written to protect endangered species regardless of their public perception or perceived economic value, such dynamics influence what gets classified as endangered and how much funding a species receives for protection. We thus further argue that the anthropocentric nature of policy making has made it difficult to address WNS and other wildlife diseases with less obvious human impacts in a more holistic way.KEYWORDS: White-nose syndromeendangered species actpolitical ecologylock-ins AcknowledgmentsThe authors would like to thank Amy A.

When first discovered, the fungus was scientifically referred to as Geomyces destructans.2. We recognize that justifying the focus of this manuscript on the economic importance and value of bats is a bit ironic. As many of our informants noted, bats have intrinsic value and are distinctly unique mammals. However, given the anthropocentric nature of the discipline of sociology, we highlight their value to human populations here.3. Bats in Europe are thought to have evolved a resistance to P. destructans and do not suffer from WNS even when the fungus is present on their bodies or in their caves (Blehert et al.

With an epistemic governance framework, we identify the discourses that contextualise, justify, and explain policymaking in the energy–security nexus. We find that sustainable energy transitions are strengthened by connections to national security when alternative energy niches have matured but undermined for the same reason when fossil fuels are viewed as more robust sources of security. We detect policy intervention points aiming to indicate how transitions are enabled. Estonia and Finland evince strategic directions to destabilise the regime while supporting niches, whereas Norway focuses on continued oil and gas production. Whereas all are in principle in favour of sustainability transitions, they define transitions differently: Estonia values national sovereignty, Finland preparedness and the economy, and Norway sustainable development and economic security tied to hydrocarbons.","PeriodicalId":54173,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Sociology","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134912685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
