CAST is a global hub for understanding the systemic and society-wide transformations that are required to address climate change.
We research and develop the social transformations needed to produce a low-carbon and sustainable society; at the core of our work is a fundamental question of enormous social significance:
How can we as a society live differently – and better – in ways that meet the urgent need for rapid and far-reaching emission reductions?
The core partners of the Centre for Climate Change and Social Transformations (CAST) are the University of Bath, the Oxford-based charity Climate Outreach, the University of Manchester, the University of East Anglia and Cardiff University. We are funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC).
