Synopsis

As we teeter on the brink of climate collapse, this issue of Critical Muslim asks how we got here and whether environmental catastrophe can be averted. From the arid plains of Andalusia to landlocked Jordan, we see how communities are navigating extreme conditions and making the most of scarce resources. With the Muslim South disproportionately impacted by climate change, contributors will explore the consequences of water wars, worsening refugee crises and the innovation required to face a brave new world. Critical Muslim is a quarterly magazine of ideas and issues showcasing ground breaking thinking on Islam and what it means to be a Muslim in a rapidly changing, interconnected world.
