The earth is in crisis, and without urgent, systemic, and collective global action to address the emerging threat of climate change, we will continue to see catastrophic events impacting humanity, threatening our very survival in many regions of the world. Temperatures will rise, ice shelves will melt, seas will rise, crops will fail, water scarcity from drought and new weather patterns will increase and spread, wildfires will accelerate, and food and water insecurity, violence, and the largest human migration in history will ensue. These climate crises will displace over 1.2 billion people by 2050 at a rate currently exceeding 21.5 million people per year. This mass migration will create incredible burdens on political, legal, economic, agricultural, educational, and health infrastructures in future host countries, and we are globally unprepared. Enacting solutions that will reduce harmful behaviors that cause climate change requires novel approaches that are bold and expansive. This dissertation explores the concept of meta-networks and adaptive, polycentric meta-networks as partial leadership and governance solutions to address the human impact of climate crises. The embedded, multi-level, single-case study of a large, well-established, Washington, D.C.-based climate action network in this dissertation offers important insights that may help us navigate the complex dynamics of climate change. Specifically, the findings of this dissertation research demonstrate an approach to addressing climate crises that integrates networked models of leadership-at-scale, complex adaptive systems, and polycentric governance. This dissertation is available in open access at AURA, http://aura.antioch.edu/ and Ohio Link ETD Center, https://etd.ohiolink.edu/.
