A powerful exploration of how climate change is turning the mountains of South Asia into landscapes of uncertainty, where communities, ecosystems and institutions struggle to adapt to an unpredictable future.

This book explores the many faces of uncertainty in the mountains of South Asia - landscapes, livelihoods and lifeways that now stand at the frontline of global climate change. Across these high-altitude worlds, uncertainty has seeped into everyday life, shaping the contexts and experiences of individuals, communities, science and policy-making, and multispecies worlds. Farmers grapple with weather and livelihood uncertainties, mountain scientists find their methods and models outpaced by runaway climate change, forest animals change their behaviour in inexplicable ways, and policy-makers struggle to plan for unknown climate futures. Running through all these experiences, there is a pervasive sense of uncertainty, laced with anxiety and apprehension.
