Climate change, care provisioning, and inequality: transitioning towards a sustainable economy
探讨照护危机与气候危机的相互关联，分析气候变化如何加剧照护需求并挑战照护者与社会，强调结构性不平等的影响，并呼吁将照护纳入气候议程以实现可持续未来。
Abstract This paper examines the interconnection of the care crisis and the climate crisis. With a focus on childcare and eldercare, it discusses how climate change impinges on these types of care systems by heightening the demand for care and posing challenges to the carers and societies in general. It also demonstrates how underlying structural inequalities in society shape the ways in which climate-related shocks and stressors impact people and their capacities to respond to them. The paper then provides examples of innovative efforts in building a resilient care system and argues that a transformative shift is necessary towards the integration of care in climate discourses and agendas and in the mitigation and adaptation plans of governments, businesses, and households. Only then can we improve our capacities for care in a warming world and achieve a sustainable future.
