Abstract
In the wake of escalating climate challenges, the role of diverse specific groups in climate action has gained unprecedented attention. Among these groups, older adults, often overlooked, present a unique potential in the realm of climate action. The concept of climate gerontology, first introduced by Haq and Gutman in 2014, encapsulates this intersection of gerontology and climate change. However, despite its initial proposal, the field has not fully developed its potential. This article aims to revisit and expand the concept of climate gerontology, arguing for a more active and recognized contribution of older people in climate-change initiatives.
