From the publisher

We are excited to bring forth this special issue titled Climate Change and Sustainability in Emergency Management - Research and Applied Science in a Changing World. Our thanks to the authors and researchers who have brought forth life changing research that can be applied today across the globe. Emergency managers are at the nexus of the climate change-sustainability debate, whether they are aware of it or not! A blurring of the emergency managers job description and responsibilities has been in process for years, much like moss growing on the north side of trees, the change has been slow but persistent.
