Diana Stuart is a Professor at Northern Arizona University’s School of Earth and Sustainability, specializing in environmental sociology. Her work examines systemic drivers of environmental crises, potential solutions, and pathways for social transformation. Key research areas include climate change, biodiversity conservation, animal studies, agricultural systems, and water management. She critiques industrial agriculture’s environmental impacts and explores the intersections of political economy, technological rationality, and climate policy.
Her research integrates interdisciplinary frameworks, addressing topics like degrowth economics, climate activism (e.g., Extinction Rebellion), and the ethical dimensions of environmental policies. Recent work highlights tensions between economic growth imperatives and ecological sustainability, emphasizing systemic change over incremental reforms. She has collaborated on studies of farmer decision-making, conservation biologists’ ethical challenges, and community-led climate adaptation strategies.
Publications often analyze the role of technology (e.g., nuclear fusion, geoengineering) and corporate influence in perpetuating environmental crises. She advocates for transformative approaches to address climate change, including rethinking agricultural practices and challenging capitalist structures. Dr. Stuart’s work bridges academic research with practical solutions, aiming to foster socially just and ecologically sustainable futures.
