abstract
In this paper I address four issues as an anthropologist and social scientist: social studies of
science and some of its implications for global climate change research, ethnologies of local
knowledge of environment and environmental changes, an analysis of some problematic
contributions of scientists to policy-making, and the need for new policy initiatives by climate
change scientists and local peoples.
