New event! 'The show must go on? Revisiting the script of international climate cooperation ten years after Paris', this event is launching a new Special Issue in GEP, edited by Florian Steig, Eva Lövbrand and Angela Oels. Online, free, 1-2.30pm BST 30th September. www.bisa.ac.uk/events/show-...

Drawing upon a newly published Special Issue in Global Environmental Politics (edited by Florian Steig, Eva Lövbrand and Angela Oels), this event asks how the “script” for international climate cooperation is discursively (re)produced, performed, and reconfigured at a time when liberal environmentalism is under threat by great power rivalry, rising anti-climate populism, and accelerating climate disasters. How can it be that the annual Conferences of the Parties (COPs) to the 1992 UNFCCC, serving as the Meetings of the Parties to the 2015 Paris Agreement, continue as normal when the world as we know it is coming undone? How can countries claim that “the Paris Agreement is working” when their nationally determined contributions (NDCs) are clearly “off target” and leading us to a 2.8°C warmer world by the end of this century? To answer these questions, the event brings together leading critical-interpretative scholars across political science, science and technology studies, sociology, and human geography.

Read the whole thread, but please think about this is particular. This will be the last of the OG convenors (including me) stepping down and it's so important that we hand over to people who will give the group the time and energy that it needs. Do get in touch if you're tempted and have questions.

Additional text not included in the post: Join the ECP working group for an interactive workshop with local group B&H SeaCheck, a citizen science collective who test the sea water quality once a week in Brighton & Hove area. Join us on the beach for a hands-on water quality test, and hear about how these tools can be used to challenge official environmental narratives.

Tomorrow!! 'Earthrise' and the politics of seeing everything from nowhere, an Earth Day keynote from Joanne Yao (QMUL) 11am-12.30pm BST, online and free Make sure you register! www.bisa.ac.uk/members/work...

The first Earth Day in 1970 had many inspirations – Rachel Carson’s compelling Silent Spring, antiwar student movements across the US, and the devastation of the 1969 Santa Barbara oil spill – but one photo is often credited with the emergence of a new global environmental consciousness in the late 1960s. Earthrise was snapped by astronaut Bill Anders as the Apollo 8 spacecraft orbited the moon, and it depicts a blue and white planet floating in the blackness of space. While it highlights earth’s vulnerability to environmental destruction, the picture also showed us a different vision of ourselves. As Apollo 8 commander Frank Borman reflected, “We were the first humans to see the world in its majestic totality… this must be what God sees.”

In this Earth Day keynote, Joanne Yao explores the abstracted view of earth from above as an integrated whole and the politics of a whole humanity that this God-like view engendered. From this position, the 1968 moment becomes the culmination of a longer quest to know the earth in its entirety through scientific exploration into the unknown, which was often entangled with histories of colonialism and racialized and gendered exclusions.

The keynote will explore the utopian imaginaries this view of earth inspired in how humans could rise above parochial interests to unite as one against the cold nothingness of space, but it also traces the silences and erasures that enabled what Donna Haraway calls the “god trick of seeing everything from nowhere.”
