"By bringing people back into the security discourse, this superb collection of essays provides an important reminder of the centrality of individuals and communities for fostering both security and sustainable development. Through illuminating the ways in which global environmental change affects people's needs, rights, and values, the authors convincingly make the case for states to prioritize human security in responding to the manifold challenges posed by global environmental change." -- Erika Weinthal, Duke University, author of State Making and Environmental Cooperation
