Crayton, M.-J., & Naher, N. (2023). Beyond Oil Spill Cleanup, Abandoned Infrastructures Affect the Environment Too – A case study of the Lived Experiences of the Niger Delta People. Public Works Management & Policy, 28(1), 70–88. https://doi.org/10.1177/1087724X221128824
International oil spills in the Niger Delta have displaced many residents and created underused and abandoned houses. This study investigates how infrastructure decline affects rural Niger Delta populations’ living standards. This research uses a phenomenological case study to examine how oil extraction affects infrastructure in Nigeria’s Niger Delta. This research shows how corruption, poor governance, lack of transparency, laws, finances, resources, and education affect Niger Delta sustainability, development, and infrastructure. The study’s findings can be utilized to debate developing countries’ social and economic challenges with government officials, lawmakers, and environmental justice advocates.

Oil spills can devastate marine life, ecosystems, and humans. They jeopardize the public, environment, and companies’ legitimacy. This page categorizes the causes, effects, and consequences of recent major events in Brazil as well as worldwide. By studying these cases, we can learn to prevent or handle them better using cutting-edge cleaning procedures. This finding emphasizes the necessity of environmental surveillance in the oil business and supporting new technologies that seek alternate techniques, as it has become evident that in many spills, the real harm is suppressed to minimize public backlash. Cleaning contaminated water. Increased awareness is needed to improve working conditions as well as environmental protection.

Koehn, L. E., Nelson, L. K., Samhouri, J. F., Norman, K. C., Jacox, M. G., Cullen, A. C., Fiechter, J., Pozo Buil, M., & Levin, P. S. (2022). Social-ecological vulnerability of fishing communities to climate change: A U.S. West Coast case study. PloS One, 17(8), e0272120–e0272120. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0272120
According to this source, climate change is already affecting coastal communities, as well as future changes in fishing species productivity due to climate change will affect their livelihoods and culture. Harvesting aquatic creatures from the California Current Large Marine Ecosystem benefits West Coast towns economically, socially, and culturally. Ecological vulnerability analyses for California Current species have been done, but community sensitivity will vary. The authors provide a social-ecological vulnerability framework and automated, reproducible methodologies for measuring climate change risk in West Coast fishing communities. The integration of meteorological, ecological, economic, as well as societal data shows that susceptibility factors differ throughout U.S. West Coast fishing communities, highlighting the need for a range of well-aligned techniques to adapt to climate change’s ecological repercussions.

Okeke-Ogbuafor, N., Taylor, A., Dougill, A., Stead, S., & Gray, T. (2022). Alleviating impacts of climate change on fishing communities using weather information to improve fishers’ resilience. Frontiers in Environmental Science, 10. https://doi.org/10.3389/fenvs.2022.951245
This study helps us evaluate climate change adaptation initiatives for West African subsistence fishermen as well as their families. West African artisanal fishers are increasingly affected by climate change. Overfishing has depleted fish stocks, yet long-term, pro-poor measures can help artisanal fishers. One possibility is improving weather reports. 80 semi-structured interviews in Senegal, Ghana, as well as Nigeria in 2021 and 2022 examine claims that artisanal and secondary fishers in West Africa can better adapt livelihoods as well as food security to climate change. This study contradicts climate change mitigation efforts.

Shrubsole, G. (2015). All that is solid melts into air: climate change and neoliberalism. Soundings (London, England), 59(59), 115–128. https://doi.org/10.3898/136266215814890486
Guy Shrubsole examines how the neoliberal global warming denialist argument has evolved from questioning global warming research or railing against renewable energy costs. They now believe that we can only adapt to climate change. Human cultures adapt well, therefore this is reassuring. This article debunks the emerging global warming neoliberal consensus. It begins by criticizing recent neoliberal perspectives on climate change, particularly in relation to current greatly increased flooding, before turning to conservative, green, as well as social democrat responses to environmental change. It offers a new consensus and political system to mitigate climate change.
