    Top 10 Posts for March and April 2015

    May 6, 2015 By Schuyler Null

    “The dynamics at play in Florida – massive infrastructure projects with unintended consequences, intensifying effects of environmental change, and political resistance – are a microcosm of what makes adjusting to climate change such a vexing societal challenge,” wrote Wilson Center Fellow Katrina Schwartz in April’s most popular post.

    It was actually the most popular article of the last two months. We have a double feature this month to make up for missing March’s top 10. Joining Katrina’s among the most trafficked stories was a look into the current state of political demography featuring some of the foremost demographers in the field, the launch of a major G7 report on climate fragility, a concluding feature on the Wilson Center and Circle of Blue “Choke Point: India” project, and the launch of the China Environment Forum’s new water-energy-food roadmap. If that’s not enough, Kate Diamond makes a compelling case for why now is the time to change the U.S.-Pakistan relationship.
