Based on a cross-national, cross-generational and community-based research project on climate change and consumption with urban residents in China, Uganda and the UK, this book examines how different cultures think about past, present and future responsibility for climate change. Expanding beyond perspectives from the Global North, it considers how to build sustainable societies given the common but differentiated responsibilities for climate change across different cultures.
