Eroding Paradigms: Heritage in an Age of Climate Gentrification

Abstract

"Climate gentrification" is a term that is getting more traction in both popular media and academic circles. However, little has been done to link this new paradigm to built heritage and place. This short provocation briefly explores how climate gentrification and heritage are inextricably linked, and outlines the importance of heritage to understanding how climate gentrification will shape landscapes, cities and neighborhoods in the future.
