A central finding of sociology is that unequal power dynamics shape patterns
of social mobility and access to social, political, and economic resources. It is
widely documented that the effects of global climate change will not be
equally distributed around the world, and many of the countries least
responsible for the rise in greenhouse gases will be most likely to feel its
impacts in changes in weather, sea levels, human health costs, and
economic hardships. These inequalities will be further exacerbated by the
unequal burdens inflicted by climate and limited disaster response
capacities. One important predicted outcome of climate change is human
migration out of poorer regions and countries into more developed, less
impacted areas this environmental migration has the potential to strain the
resources and social fabrics of receiving societies and deplete the human
capital in sending communities. Variations in individual, community, and
national vulnerability to the impacts of climate change are only part of the
structure of inequality in global climate change. As the 2007 IPCC report
notes, there is an unequal distribution of impacts and vulnerabilities to
climate change associated with social class and age in both developed and
developing countries. Furthermore, there is inequality between women and
men, adults and children, and present and future generations. The quest for
prosperity drives the rapid economic growth of large countries like China and
India without whose cooperation, global mitigation efforts will fail. The
unequal impacts of climate change are coupled with inequalities of
representation in global and national policy making arenas leaving global
climate change policy efforts open to charges of bias. The majority of people
did not expect that Elizabeth would one day reign over Britain when she was
born, therefore they were caught off guard. Elizabeth, who was given the
nickname Lilibet throughout her childhood, was able to enjoy the first ten
years of her life with all of the perks of being a princess without having to
worry about the pressures of being the heir apparent. Both her father and
mother lived in two different residences during her childhood: one was in
London, and the other was Royal Lodge, the family's property in Windsor
Great Park. Elizabeth and her younger sister Margaret received their
education from private tutors in the comfort of their own homes. Academic
subjects such as French, mathematics, and history were taught alongside
extracurricular activities such as singing, dance, and painting
