CALL FOR PAPERS: SPRING SERIES 2026

The Trouble with Time: Temporalities of Climate Change

The Persistence of Memory, Salvador Dalí (MoMA)

Submission Deadline: 31 May 2026

Climate change has brought renewed urgency to how we understand and engage environmental and political temporalities. Through what temporal horizons does the political discourse of climate change operate? Does the Anthropocene lens foster a “gaze from a vertiginously distant future” (Nordblad 2021: 333) that disengages us through temporal detachment? How do widely circulating climate temporalities encounter culturally embedded concepts of time, and to what effect (e.g., Marquardt & Delina 2021)? This issue of Weather Matters invites submissions that attend to the questions of conjunctures and disjunctures of climate change temporalities. We welcome pieces that explore the varied, overlapping, and entangled dimensions and frameworks of time as they are implied and enacted through our changing climate.
