概括

气候变化讨论中的科学主义将非洲土著知识系统 (AIKs) 边缘化. 将AIK整合到气候战略和教育中,对于去殖民化应对和提高可持续性至关重要.

科学领域:

环境科学环境科学
气候变化研究气候变化研究
土著知识系统土著知识系统

背景情况:

人为全球变暖 (AGW) 是一个重大的全球挑战,需要有效的缓解策略.
在AGW话语中,科学主义往往忽视了对气候变化适应至关重要的土著观点,特别是在非洲.
非洲有限的适应能力加剧了被边缘化的土著观点的影响.

研究的目的:

批判性地检查科学主义如何影响人类造成的全球变暖 (AGW) 论述在认识论和伦理上.
探索气候变化阻碍的障碍源自科学主义的否认主义和生态现代主义.
倡导将非洲土著知识系统 (AIK) 纳入应对气候变化的战略和教育.

主要方法:

该研究采用了关键的定性研究方法.
理论框架包括变革性学习理论和Ubuntu哲学.
分析重点是科学主义在AGW话语中的作用及其对可持续发展教育 (ESD) 的影响.

主要成果:

科学主义创造了认识论上的偏见,降低了AIK的价值,阻碍了有效的气候应对策略.
拟议的途径促进AIK在非洲教育机构的整合和主流化.
取消气候应对努力的殖民化和加强ESD是关键成果.

结论:

整合AIK,特别是来自"典范伦理社区" (EECs),对于包容性和有效的气候变化反应至关重要.
这种整合解决了非殖民化的必要性,并提高了脆弱地区的弹性.
与AIK合作多样化气候战略对于全球可持续发展努力至关重要.

Sustainable Development

Sustainable Development

As the human population continues to grow and use resources, we must be mindful of our planet’s natural limits. Sustainable development provides a pathway to maintain and improve human life now while also ensuring that future generations will have the resources that they need. The long-term success of sustainability efforts rests on understanding the interplay between human actions and ecological systems.

Global Climate Change

Global Climate Change

Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

Responses to Drought and Flooding

Responses to Drought and Flooding

Water plays a significant role in the life cycle of plants. However, insufficient or excess of water can be detrimental and pose a serious threat to plants.

What is Climate?

What is Climate?

Climate refers to the prevailing weather conditions in a specific area over an extended period. As the saying goes, “Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.” Climate is influenced by geographic factors, such as latitude, terrain, and proximity to bodies of water.

Biodiversity and Human Values

Biodiversity and Human Values

Human civilization relies on biodiversity in many ways. Sudden changes in species biodiversity result in environmental changes that can modify weather patterns and therefore human civilizations.

Design Example: Sustainability in Concrete Building

Design Example: Sustainability in Concrete Building

As the construction industry moves towards more eco-friendly practices, concrete's adaptability and its ability to incorporate sustainable features make it a key material in the drive towards greener building solutions.
There are multiple approaches to achieve sustainability in a commercial concrete building. For instance, construct a concrete parking area under the building, utilizing pervious concrete paver blocks in open areas to facilitate rainwater collection through an underground...
