Water security issues resulting from climate change are a reality for people across the world, and this book highlights the experiences, challenges, successes and failures of communities at the vanguard.

Using real-world cases of coastal erosion, drought and water conflicts in the UK, Thailand and India Michael Buser advocates for the role of ecological care in living with environmental change. The book makes an important contribution for environmental policy on climate adaptation and draws on scholarship from the fields of planning, geography, urban studies and feminist theory.
