This unique collection examines climate change, disasters and human health in both 'developed' and 'developing' island nations, highlighting socio-cultural issues in three different countries: the United Kingdom, Sri Lanka, and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. The book explores how island communities are particularly vulnerable to climate change impacts and analyzes the social, cultural, and health dimensions of climate adaptation and resilience in these geographically diverse settings.
