The Rice Sustainability Institute was proud to cohost journalist and researcher Peter Schwartzstein as he explored the links between climate change and global conflicts, drawing from his new book, "The Heat and the Fury: On the Frontlines of Climate Violence".
At our latest event, journalist and researcher Peter Schwartzstein explored the deep connections between climate change and global conflicts, sharing insights from his new book, “The Heat and the Fury: On the Frontlines of Climate Violence”. Schwartzstein highlighted how climate stress—like water shortages and food insecurity—exacerbates existing tensions, sometimes pushing communities toward violence. As he put it: "For a community already up to its eyeballs with environmental troubles, even a small climate stress can be enough to break the proverbial straw." Can cooperation on climate issues ease geopolitical frictions? Schwartzstein’s decade of field research suggests it just might. This event was cohosted by the Edward P. Djerejian Center for the Middle East and the Rice Sustainability Institute. ?? Learn more: https://bit.ly/3DKolqi? #ClimateConflict #ClimateChange #EnvironmentalPolicy #BakerInstitute
