Women are underrepresented in key disciplines for the study of climate change. They are a minority in the earth sciences, where surveys reveal that less than 20% of meteorologists and geoscientists are women.[16] A recent analysis of atmospheric science doctoral programs in the United States reveals that women made up 17% of tenured faculty and tenured positions, with even smaller proportions in the senior ranks, and 53% of departments had two or fewer female faculty.[17] They are only slightly better represented in the sciences. ecological. One study reports that they make up 55% of graduate students in ecology, but only a third of full professors are women and that three-quarters of the articles in the flagship international journal, Ecology, are written by men.[18] Women received proportionately less research funding and were less likely to be cited by their colleagues. Women who are members of the Ecological Society of America increased from 23% in 1992 to 37% in 2010.[19]​.

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization publishes data on women in science in the world.[20]​ In general, they are better represented as part of the total scientific researchers in Latin America, Oceania and Europe (30%+) and less in Asia (19%).

It is argued that when women are overlooked as academics and decision-makers, the world fails to harness its full human capacity, which is necessary for issues as pressing as climate change.[21] Women can also adopt more collaborative approaches, especially in negotiations, and can pay more attention to disadvantaged groups and the natural environment.[22]​[23]​.

Gender has become an issue due to the essential roles of women in the management of resources such as water, forests and energy, and since women lead struggles for environmental protection.[24]​[25]​.

General concern has been expressed about the need to highlight women's work and include more women on senior committees to provide gender balance, social justice and inspiration for young women to enter scientific careers.[26]​[27]​ This reflects broader arguments about barriers to advancement and the need for them to "lean into" leadership positions.[28]​.

The outcome document of the Rio+20 Conference on Sustainable Development - The Future We Want - recognized the need to remove barriers to women's full and equal participation in decision-making and management and the need to increase the number of women in leadership positions.[29] A report prepared by UN Women, the Mary Robinson Foundation - Climate Justice, the Global Gender and Climate Alliance and the UNFCCC recognizes the structural inequalities that impede women's representation in science, negotiations and climate policies and recommends greater gender balance in the UNFCCC and national delegations.[30] The report argues that the "challenges of climate change cannot be resolved without empowering women" and that women have been marginalized in international negotiations. It reports data showing weak representation of women in UNFCCC institutions, including the adaptation committee (25%), the GEF council (19%), and the expert group (15%), and that women generally make up less than 20% of delegation heads and less than 30% of delegation members at UNFCCC conferences.

Kate Raworth[31]​ called on international science to pay greater attention to the inclusion of women who are academics and then in her article "Should the Anthropocene be the Manthropocene?"[32]​ noted that the working group of 36 scientists and academics who met in Berlin in 2014 to begin evaluating the evidence that humanity was entering a new epoch, the Anthropocene, was composed almost entirely of men. She stated: "Mainstream scientists may have the intellect to recognize that our planetary age is dominated by human activity, but they still seem to ignore the fact that their own intellectual deliberations are strangely dominated by northern white male voices."

There are a variety of ways to identify women who have made important contributions to climate change. The first is the list of authors of high-level international assessments from the UN and other organizations such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The second is to examine women who have been invited to join the editorial boards of peer-reviewed journals on climate change. A third is to look at the membership of the global change committees of the International Council for Science (ICSU). And a fourth is to recognize the women who are members of your National Academy of Sciences who work on climate change. Many of them are IPCC or other report authors, and also members of ICSU committees, members of its National Academy and other marks of achievement.

Seven cities around the world have appointed women as Chief Heat Officers (CHOs) to take action against extreme heat due to the consequences of climate change.[33]​.

Ecofeminism is a branch of feminism that considers environmentalism and the relationship between women and the earth to be interrelated. According to Françoise d'Eaubonne in her book Le Féminisme ou la Mort (1974), ecofeminism relates the oppression and domination of all marginalized groups (women, people of color, children, the poor) with the oppression and domination of nature (animals, land, water, air, etc.).

Young women are taking more action at a younger age, known as the "Greta Thunberg effect".[34]​[35]​[36]​[37]​ Greta Thunberg[38]​[39]​ is a twenty-year-old environmental activist[40]​[41]​[42]​[43]​[44]​[45]​ known for her work fighting climate change. climate,[46][47][48][49]​ and is seen as a role model for younger girls. These new generations of girls are being called "environmental warriors", they are taking action for the environment in various ways. In Kazakhstan, a group of young people called Team Coco have come together to fight against the ecological problems that pollute their nation. To achieve this, they have created an application known as TECO, which is an "augmented reality game that merges educational and entertainment tools." to help players change their behavior and be more environmentally conscious."[50]​ More girls have been taking action on climate change through the use of technology and, in turn, helping to encourage other political leaders to take action on climate change and business corporations to reduce the carbon footprint they leave behind.

Women are underrepresented in key disciplines for the study of climate change. They are a minority in the earth sciences, where surveys reveal that less than 20% of meteorologists and geoscientists are women.[16] A recent analysis of atmospheric science doctoral programs in the United States reveals that women made up 17% of tenured faculty and tenured positions, with even smaller proportions in the senior ranks, and 53% of departments had two or fewer female faculty.[17] They are only slightly better represented in the sciences. ecological. One study reports that they make up 55% of graduate students in ecology, but only a third of full professors are women and that three-quarters of the articles in the flagship international journal, Ecology, are written by men.[18] Women received proportionately less research funding and were less likely to be cited by their colleagues. Women who are members of the Ecological Society of America increased from 23% in 1992 to 37% in 2010.[19]​.

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization publishes data on women in science in the world.[20]​ In general, they are better represented as part of the total scientific researchers in Latin America, Oceania and Europe (30%+) and less in Asia (19%).

It is argued that when women are overlooked as academics and decision-makers, the world fails to harness its full human capacity, which is necessary for issues as pressing as climate change.[21] Women can also adopt more collaborative approaches, especially in negotiations, and can pay more attention to disadvantaged groups and the natural environment.[22]​[23]​.

Gender has become an issue due to the essential roles of women in the management of resources such as water, forests and energy, and since women lead struggles for environmental protection.[24]​[25]​.

General concern has been expressed about the need to highlight women's work and include more women on senior committees to provide gender balance, social justice and inspiration for young women to enter scientific careers.[26]​[27]​ This reflects broader arguments about barriers to advancement and the need for them to "lean into" leadership positions.[28]​.

The outcome document of the Rio+20 Conference on Sustainable Development - The Future We Want - recognized the need to remove barriers to women's full and equal participation in decision-making and management and the need to increase the number of women in leadership positions.[29] A report prepared by UN Women, the Mary Robinson Foundation - Climate Justice, the Global Gender and Climate Alliance and the UNFCCC recognizes the structural inequalities that impede women's representation in science, negotiations and climate policies and recommends greater gender balance in the UNFCCC and national delegations.[30] The report argues that the "challenges of climate change cannot be resolved without empowering women" and that women have been marginalized in international negotiations. It reports data showing weak representation of women in UNFCCC institutions, including the adaptation committee (25%), the GEF council (19%), and the expert group (15%), and that women generally make up less than 20% of delegation heads and less than 30% of delegation members at UNFCCC conferences.

Kate Raworth[31]​ called on international science to pay greater attention to the inclusion of women who are academics and then in her article "Should the Anthropocene be the Manthropocene?"[32]​ noted that the working group of 36 scientists and academics who met in Berlin in 2014 to begin evaluating the evidence that humanity was entering a new epoch, the Anthropocene, was composed almost entirely of men. She stated: "Mainstream scientists may have the intellect to recognize that our planetary age is dominated by human activity, but they still seem to ignore the fact that their own intellectual deliberations are strangely dominated by northern white male voices."

There are a variety of ways to identify women who have made important contributions to climate change. The first is the list of authors of high-level international assessments from the UN and other organizations such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The second is to examine women who have been invited to join the editorial boards of peer-reviewed journals on climate change. A third is to look at the membership of the global change committees of the International Council for Science (ICSU). And a fourth is to recognize the women who are members of your National Academy of Sciences who work on climate change. Many of them are IPCC or other report authors, and also members of ICSU committees, members of its National Academy and other marks of achievement.

Seven cities around the world have appointed women as Chief Heat Officers (CHOs) to take action against extreme heat due to the consequences of climate change.[33]​.

Ecofeminism is a branch of feminism that considers environmentalism and the relationship between women and the earth to be interrelated. According to Françoise d'Eaubonne in her book Le Féminisme ou la Mort (1974), ecofeminism relates the oppression and domination of all marginalized groups (women, people of color, children, the poor) with the oppression and domination of nature (animals, land, water, air, etc.).

Young women are taking more action at a younger age, known as the "Greta Thunberg effect".[34]​[35]​[36]​[37]​ Greta Thunberg[38]​[39]​ is a twenty-year-old environmental activist[40]​[41]​[42]​[43]​[44]​[45]​ known for her work fighting climate change. climate,[46][47][48][49]​ and is seen as a role model for younger girls. These new generations of girls are being called "environmental warriors", they are taking action for the environment in various ways. In Kazakhstan, a group of young people called Team Coco have come together to fight against the ecological problems that pollute their nation. To achieve this, they have created an application known as TECO, which is an "augmented reality game that merges educational and entertainment tools." to help players change their behavior and be more environmentally conscious."[50]​ More girls have been taking action on climate change through the use of technology and, in turn, helping to encourage other political leaders to take action on climate change and business corporations to reduce the carbon footprint they leave behind.
