Caption: "Renewable energy must be collected, stored, and transported, says PhD student Caroline White-Nockleby. "It requires financing, metals extraction, and the processing of decommissioned materials. ... Not everyone stands to benefit equally from renewable energy's potentials, and not everyone will be equally exposed to its socio-environmental impacts.” Credits: Photo courtesy of Caroline White-Hockleby. Caption: "Minimizing the localized burdens of renewable energy implementation will be complex," says White-Hockleby. "I’m still in the planning phase of my own research, but I hope it will help surface, and offer tools with which to think through, some of these socio-environmental complexities." Caption: "Almost everyone I talked to highlighted the importance of being part of a community — of engaging in and through collaborative efforts," says White-Nockleby. "That’s what gives me hope as well: people working together to address climate change in ways that attend to both its scientific and its social complexities."
