摘要

摘要:气候变化正以可见和不可见的方式迅速改变着我们的世界。人类肉眼看不见的温室气体导致了气候变化，其广泛的影响我们现在目睹了。毁灭性的洪水和破纪录的热浪是更明显的影响。还有一些基本上是看不见的。把看不见的变成可见的是南方文化这个问题的核心:用当代南方的图像和文字来展示无处不在的气候变化以及我们如何经历它。最新的气候科学详细地描述了采取有意义的气候行动的窗口正在缩小。尽管有科学依据，政策制定者也试图通过谈判找到解决方案，但我们还没有在气候变化问题上出现转机。虽然我们今天有减少排放的解决方案，但我们缺乏必要的灵感和意愿。

Making the Invisible Visible: For a Climate Future

Abstract: Climate change is rapidly transforming our world in ways both visible and invisible. Greenhouse gases—invisible to the human eye—cause climate change, with widespread impacts to which we now bear witness. Devastating floods and record-breaking heat waves are some more visible effects. There are others that remain mostly unseen. Making the invisible visible is at the core of this issue of Southern Cultures : using images and words from the contemporary South to show the ubiquity of climate change and how we all experience it. The latest climate science describes in stark detail a narrowing window for meaningful climate action. Despite the science, and policymakers' attempts to negotiate a solution, we haven't yet turned a corner on climate change. While we have the solutions to reduce emissions today, we lack the requisite inspiration and will.

期刊介绍： In the foreword to the first issue of the The Southern Literary Journal, published in November 1968, founding editors Louis D. Rubin, Jr. and C. Hugh Holman outlined the journal"s objectives: "To study the significant body of southern writing, to try to understand its relationship to the South, to attempt through it to understand an interesting and often vexing region of the American Union, and to do this, as far as possible, with good humor, critical tact, and objectivity--these are the perhaps impossible goals to which The Southern Literary Journal is committed." Since then The Southern Literary Journal has published hundreds of essays by scholars of southern literature examining the works of southern writers and the ongoing development of southern culture.
