How the Atmosphere Lost Its Virtue<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Over the past two decades, the concept of human \u201cvulnerability\u201d to climate change has become foundational to both scientific research and movements for climate justice. Yet metrics of climate vulnerability are failing to help those most threatened by climate change.<\/p>\n

This presentation argues that a historical perspective is essential for aligning the measurement of climate vulnerability with the goals of climate justice. It focuses on one key turning point in the long history of attempts to measure human response to climate: namely, a subtle yet consequential shift circa 1780 of what it meant to be “sensible” to the atmosphere.<\/p>\n
