As a new person here, part of the twitter exodus, I'll offer an #introduction. I'm a professor of #sociology at Boston College, and starting next year at University of British Columbia. Much of my #research focuses on the #human dimensions of #ClimateChange and the #ClimateCrisis. I work at the intersections of #EnvironmentalSociology, #PoliticalEconomy, and primarily use a range of #statistical methods. I co- #edit the journal #SociologyOfDevelopment, and I'm a chapter author for #NCA5.
