Siders will explore recent work on managed retreat — the purposeful movement of people and infrastructure away from hazards — as a climate-adaptation strategy and the debates that have emerged about the implications of retreat for social and environmental justice, who should be protected, who should pay, and how people perceive what’s fair. Siders focuses her research on climate change adaptation decision-making and evaluation, particularly how and why communities decide when, where and how to adapt to the effects of climate change, and how these decisions and decision-making processes affect risk reduction and equity outcomes.
This event is part of the David Bradford Energy and Environmental Policy Seminar Series organized by the Center for Policy Research on Energy and the Environment (C-PREE) in the Princeton School of Public and International Affairs and co-sponsored by the High Meadows Environmental Institute (HMEI).
