Excellent- More about Under the Weather: Reimagining Mobility in the Climate Crisis
The climate emergency is closely linked to human mobility, including driving and flying, which worsens severe weather and disrupts human movement.

The book delves into the impact of fossil-fueled mobility on severe weather, highlighting how it exacerbates the consequences of natural disasters. In turn, severe weather disruptions can hinder human mobility, creating further challenges for affected populations. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, the book advocates for a shift towards zero-emission vehicles as a critical step towards repairing the damage and preparing communities for the upcoming disruptions caused by severe weather.
However, the author emphasizes that a shift to zero-emission vehicles alone is insufficient to address the full scope of the problem. The book proposes five practical recommendations aimed at reimagining mobility to work in harmony with the climate, benefiting both local communities and the environment. These recommendations include revolutionizing mobility systems, prioritizing the vital mobility of medical goods and services, embracing ecological mobilities, rebranding redundancy, and thinking flexibly.
By adopting these recommendations, communities can reduce their extreme mobility dependency and mitigate the impact of mobility disruptions on the ground. The book offers valuable insights into the challenges faced by communities in the face of climate change, and provides practical solutions for building resilience and adapting to the changing landscape.
In conclusion, Under the Weather serves as a timely and important contribution to the ongoing discussions about climate change and human mobility. By exploring the intersection between these two critical issues, the book offers practical recommendations for reimagining mobility to work in harmony with the climate, benefiting both local communities and the environment.
