Kate’s research examines the intersection of global markets and local places, with a focus on natural resources and energy. Much of her work assesses the social and ecological consequences of energy sources and technologies aimed at reducing carbon emissions. Her first book, Fueling Resistance, considers the intersection of political economy and social movements in shaping local responses to biofuels and fracking in the global South and North.
