L'homme qui plantait des arbres , la nouvelle que Jean Giono a publiée en 1952, raconte l'histoire d'un berger solitaire qui consacre des décennies à planter inlassablement des arbres dans le sud de la France et à restaurer la vie, l'eau, la végétation et le bonheur dans une région autrefois ravagée. Des indices dissimulés dans l'histoire, moins évi-dents, relèvent les causes de la désolation et de la déforestation de la région aux mains de charbonniers désespérés. Même si Giono a rédigé sa nouvelle en 1952, avant que le terme « changement climatique » soit inventé, il était en parfaite harmonie avec le monde naturel et s'inquiétait des effets destructeurs attribuables à l'exploitation irresponsable de l'environnement par la population humaine. Cette histoire remarquablement visionnaire rappelle le XXIe siècle actuel avec ses sécheresses, ses incendies et ses inondations, qui font les manchettes au quotidien. Frédéric Back, environnementaliste et planteur d'arbres dévoué, a consacré six ans de sa vie à adapter l'histoire de Giono pour l'écran. La transposition de cette nouvelle à l'écran est l'objectif analytique du présent article. Sa représentation des causes et des effets des changements climatiques et de la désolation qui en découle est particulièrement intéressante. L'animation de Back est plutôt inquiétante, mais il s'arrête brusquement et propose une solution pour imaginer un monde meilleur, plus sain, une vision qui repose sur l'idée que les humains prennent soin du monde naturel et coupent court aux pratiques qui mettent la vie sur Terre en péril pour en faire des agents positifs des changements climatiques. Ainsi, dans le film, la représentation des changements climatiques n'évolue pas irrévocablement vers une catastrophe comme le font la plupart des films de fiction climatique. L'histoire de Giono en est une de rédemption, démontrée par le passage de Back d'une palette monochromatique au début du film à des scènes qui rappellent les jardins de Monet à la fin, foisonnants de couleurs, de vie et de joie. Pour comprendre le film, l'auteur aborde le militantisme environnemental tant de Giono que de Back et examine les films antérieurs de Back. Jean Giono's 1952 novella, "L'Homme qui plantait des arbres," tells the story of a solitary shepherd who spends decades tirelessly planting trees in southern France, restoring life, water, vegetation, and happiness to a once desolate region. Less obvious are clues embedded in the story that point to the cause of the region's desolation, deforestation at the hands of desperate charcoal makers. Although Giono wrote the story in 1952, before the term "climate change" was coined, he was profoundly attuned to the natural world and concerned about the destructive effects of reckless human exploitation of the environment. This strikingly prescient tale recalls our own twenty-first-century world with drought, fires, and flooding in the headlines every day. Fredéric Back, a dedicated environmentalist and planter of trees, spent six years adapting Giono's tale for the screen. How Back translated Giono's tale to the screen is the focus of this paper. Of particular interest will be his depiction of the causes and effects of climate change and the misery engendered by it. Backs' animation leaves us a bit haunted, but he stops short, throwing us a life vest and allowing us to imagine a better, healthier world, a vision predicated on humans taking care of the natural world and halting practices that imperil life on earth, making them positive agents for climate change. In this way, the film's depiction of climate change does not move irrevocably towards calamity as most cli-fi films do; Giono's story is one of redemption, signaled by Back's shift from a monochromatic palette early in the film to scenes at the end that recall Monet's gardens, teeming with color, life, and joy. Key to understanding the film will be discussion of both Giono and Back's environmental activism, as well as consideration of Back's earlier films. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Climate change and global warming have led to an increased incidence of flooding across the world. Against the backdrop of the recent devastating floods in the Kwazulu-Natal province of South Africa, this paper explores psychotraumatology of natural disasters. In particular, we explore the impact of internal migration in South Africa, as well as apartheid spatial planning and inequality on the consequences of the flooding. We also focus on the psychotraumatology resulting from flooding, in general, and in particular on the victims of the flooding in the KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa. We conclude that the psychopathological consequences of such natural disasters are ignored even though they seriously affect the people concerned. The development of specific trainings for psychologists in psychotraumatology and the care of victims should be a priority in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Many geographers have recently shifted their attention to critical explorations of the politics enabled by emerging forms of digital technologies. Unfortunately, analyses of how indigenous peoples are engaging these technologies have been largely absent from the new research agenda. This paper argues that digital politics offer both opportunities for empowerment and dangers of assimilation for indigenous peoples. The contradictory potential for engaging with the internet is therefore not dissimilar from the outcomes of indigenous engagements with other Western tools and institutions. The paper builds this argument through a critical discourse analysis of Inuit and non-Inuit discussions of polar bear management in the Canadian Arctic across five different websites. Based on this analysis the paper argues that more research is needed on indigenous engagements with the web, to better understand how indigenous peoples are developing digital tactics to take advantage of the benefits, and minimize the dangers, of its political potential. La gestion de l'ours polaire dans l'Arctique à l'ère numérique : regards des Inuits sur l'internet De nombreux géographes réalisent aujourd'hui des analyses critiques portant sur les options politiques qui découlent des nouvelles formes de technologies numériques. Pourtant, la manière dont les populations autochtones utilisent ces technologies fait rarement l'objet des programmes de recherche récents. Cet article défend l'idée que les options politiques numériques contribuent à l'autonomisation des populations autochtones, mais les exposent aussi à un risque d'assimilation. Le recours à internet fait apparaître des contradictions qui rappellent celles que suscite l'usage par des personnes autochtones des outils et institutions propres à l'Occident. Cet argument que fait valoir l'article repose sur une analyse critique du discours inhérent aux discussions qu'entretiennent les Inuits et les non-Inuits sur cinq sites Web différents au sujet de la gestion canadienne de l'ours polaire dans l'Arctique. Il ressort de cette analyse qu'on devrait poursuivre des recherches complémentaires sur le recours par des personnes autochtones à internet en vue d'éclairer la manière dont les populations autochtones déploient des tactiques numériques pour profiter des avantages de son potentiel politique tout en évitant les écueils.

As Canada's climate warms at double the rate of the rest of the world, Canadian libraries have an important responsibility towards guardianship and activism on the climate crisis. Libraries have long been assessed on their sustainability efforts by inward facing factors, such as building standards and collections. While these remain important, this paper proposes a taxonomy that develops assessment further outward in the direction of community activism and climate justice, and tests that taxonomy against the environmental sustainability indicators published by Ontario public libraries.

Issues raised by the papers in the Building Research & Information special issue titled 'Climate Change: National Building Stocks' (2007) include the need for an explicitly engineering vision of low-energy and low-carbon futures, the need to develop detailed, dynamic models of the interactions between building stocks and energy supply systems, the importance of data in supporting both the development and the implementation of roadmaps to low-carbon futures, the likely role of micro-generation in low-carbon futures, and the phenomenon of rebound and its implications for energy-efficiency technologies. There appears to be consensus on all but the last two. This paper proposes three alternatives to Saunders' formulation of the Khazzoom-Brookes postulate, based on the view that rebound is only likely to be a problem if energy-efficiency improvements are implemented in the absence of a carbon cap. The paper ends by reviewing the interactions between regulatory and economic environment, culture and technology, and their potential impacts on energy use and carbon emissions. Les questions soulevees par les articles du numero special de Building Research & Information intitule « Changement Climatique: le Parc Bati National » (2007) comprennent la necessite d'une vision permettant de concevoir explicitement un avenir a faible consommation d'energie et a faible emission de carbone, la necessite de developper des modeles dynamiques detailles des interactions entre le parc bati et les systemes d'approvisionnement en energie, l'importance de donnees permettant d'appuyer a la fois le developpement et la mise en œuvre de feuilles de route conduisant a un avenir a faible emission de carbone, le role probable de la micro-generation dans un avenir a faible emission de carbone, ainsi que le phenomene de rebond et ses implications pour les technologies a haut rendement energetique. Un consensus semble exister sur toutes ces questions, sauf les deux dernieres. Cet article propose trois alternatives a la formulation par Saunders du postulat de Khazzoom-Brookes, basees sur le point de vue selon lequel ce rebond n'est susceptible de poser probleme que si les ameliorations en matiere de rendement energetique sont mises en œuvre en l'absence d'un plafonnement du carbone. L'article se termine par l'examen des interactions entre l'environnement reglementaire et economique, la culture et la technologie, et leurs impacts potentiels sur l'utilisation d'energie et les emissions de carbone.

It is now obvious that technology and society co-evolve. This should lead to increasing collaboration between social scientists and engineers in fields such as buildings. Yet engineering insights still have hegemony over building practices and the setting of standards. This paper considers how the insights from the recent Building Research & Information 2008 special issue titled 'Comfort in a Lower Carbon Society' might be applied in the building sector and in associated policy-making processes. It concludes that economics, the dominant discipline in the policy world, tells us that there is a huge prize to be gained in terms of reducing carbon emissions in the built environment, but that it does not provide many clues about the practical steps needed to secure the prize. Social science insights could be critical here. Specifically, it is argued that social science can increase one's understanding of the ways in which needs and demand for comfort are created. It can help design regulatory processes that build in visions of a lower carbon society from the start. It also provides the insight that high-level policy-makers must send coherent signals to regulators and practitioners to avoid the low carbon building agenda coming into conflict with other policy goals. Il est evident, aujourd'hui, que la technologie et la societe evoluent ensemble. Cela devrait conduire a une collaboration plus etroite entre chercheurs sociaux et ingenieurs dans des domaines tels que la construction. Or, l'information technique prend toujours le pas sur les pratiques du batiment et sur l'elaboration de normes. Cet article etudie comment les idees contenues dans le numero special de Building Research & Information 2008 consacre au confort dans une societe sobre en carbone pourraient etre appliquees au secteur du batiment et aux procedures decisionnelles associees. L'auteur conclut que l'economie, la discipline dominante du monde politique, nous indique qu'il y aurait beaucoup a gagner en termes de reduction des emissions de carbone dans le milieu bati mais il ne donne aucune piste sur les mesures pratiques necessaires pour securiser cet avantage. Les idees qui circulent dans les sciences sociales pourraient etre critiques a cet egard. De maniere specifique, on fait valoir que les sciences sociales pourraient ameliorer la comprehension des solutions dans lesquelles sont crees les besoins et la demande de confort. Elles pourraient aider a definir des procedures regulatrices envisageant des le depart la perspective d'une societe sobre en carbone. Elles indiquent egalement que les decideurs politiques de haut niveau doivent envoyer des signaux coherents aux organes de reglementation et aux praticiens pour eviter que les programmes de construction a faible teneur en carbone contredisent d'autres objectifs politiques.

This paper examines efforts taking place in London, San Francisco and Stockholm to implement deep greenhouse gas emission cuts--'deep decarbonization'--through the transformation of buildings and urban energy infrastructure for increased energy efficiency and low/zero carbon energy supply. Drawing on interviews, policy document analysis, and site tours to buildings and energy infrastructure, this paper analyzes how deep decarbonization is being embedded into urban buildings, energy systems, and institutions. It argues that practitioners are finding ways to create new low/zero carbon future buildings, but are having difficulty correcting the historical development path through retrofitting. This paper examines solutions and challenges brought to light by urban decarbonization in practice targeting existing buildings from which other cities can learn. Four key lessons for low/zero carbon retrofits are highlighted: 1) shift primary targets from homeowners to owners of multiple buildings, 2) expand the suite of resources available to support zero carbon retrofits, 3) experiment and teach using public investment, and 4) institutionalize energy and carbon reporting linked to municipal department targets. Given the necessity of low-carbon, efficient, and climateresilient building retrofits to address the climate crisis, action can be scaled up by considering buildings and energy infrastructure an infrastructure priority for public investment.

To explore how people attribute meanings to climate change in Taiwan, this study applied social representations theory (SRT) to develop a self-report semi-structured questionnaire that was used to collect data. To fill a research gap, structural equation modeling (SEM) was adopted to examine the determinants of social representation factors that may affect the public's intentions to engage in pro-environmental behaviors (PEBs). Exploratory factor analysis results obtained from 180 valid online responses indicated four factors for social representations of climate change, namely Emerging Climate Change Risk, Media Coverage and Influence, Psychological Distance, and Pro-environmental Behavior Intentions. The results of SEM analysis obtained from the total of 245 valid online and paper-and-pencil responses revealed that Emerging Climate Change Risk and Media Coverage and Influence helped explain the public's PEBs intentions, but Psychological Distance did not. This exploratory study provides preliminary knowledge of public understanding of and response toward climate change in the Taiwanese society and demonstrates a novel application of SEM analysis to test the direct effects of social representations of climate change on PEB intentions.

In Eastern Canada, groundwater is the main water supply for most of the rural regions and in many large urban communities. An understanding of the impacts of climate change on this resource is crucial for sustainable water management in this region. The objectives of this paper was to summarize the state of knowledge about possible climate change impacts on groundwater dynamics in Eastern Canada, thus providing a clearer understanding of future conditions. Twenty-two studies are reviewed including Ontario, Québec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island, to identify the impacts on groundwater recharge and river baseflows. The studies disagree in their estimates of changes in future recharge conditions, and no trend from West to East was revealed. This could be due to the use of different modelling approaches (model type, climate change scenario, future horizon). Nonetheless, more inter-annual variability during the summer and earlier snowmelt periods causing seasonal shifts in the recharge cycle are expected. The studies show that base flows could decrease, which could induce critical conditions for water supplies and for ecosystems. This review provided new insights that lead to the following recommendations for future studies: 1) use a variety of climate models and emission scenarios; 2) promote the use of integrated models when possible; 3) study long-term climate change impacts on groundwater resources at different scales; 4) simulate the combined effects of climate change and other pressures; and 5) develop models that cover other regions of Eastern Canada as dictated by stakeholders and water managers.

En términos generales, esta revisión sistemática muestra una notable incoherencia de evidencias entre las publicaciones. En este artículo se recomiendan investigaciones a futuro para utilizar los modelos computacionales, informados con una perspectiva socioecológica, a fin de explorar mejor la conexión entre el cambio climático y los conflictos. Extrait Cet article offre une représentation complète des recherches portant sur les conflits liés au changement climatique. Il utilise des visualisations et des statistiques descriptives pour retracer l'évolution temporelle, spatiale et thématique de ce domaine d'étude via une analyse bibliométrique de plus de six cents publications. Il résume ensuite les constatations, explications théoriques et approches méthodologiques. Globalement, cette synthèse systématique montre une incohérence remarquable des preuves entre les publications. Pour aller de l'avant, cet article recommande que les recherches futures passent par des modèles informatiques éclairés par une perspective socio-écologique pour mieux explorer le lien entre le changement climatique et les conflits.
