Climate
Change
Global
Risks, Challenges and Decisions
This book provides an up-to-date synthesis of knowledge relevantto climate change, from
the fundamental science of the climate system to the approaches and actions needed to deal
withthechallenge.
This broad synthesis is uniquein that the topics dealt with range from the basic science
documenting the need for policy action to the technologies, economicinstruments and
political strategies that can be employed in response to climate change. Ethical and cultural
issues constraining the societal response to climate change are also discussed. As scientific
evidence and understanding accumulate, it becomes ever more convincing that the global
climate system is moving beyond the patterns of natural variability within which human
civilisations
have developed and thrived. The good news is that many of the tools and
approaches necessary to deal effectively with climate change already exist. The challenge of
the twenty-first century is to integrate these instruments into the developmenttrajectories
of contemporary societies. This book provides a handbook forthose who wantto understand
and contribute to meeting this challenge.
The book covers a very wide range of disciplines: core biophysicalsciencesinvolved with
climate change (geosciences, atmospheric sciences, ocean sciences, and ecology/biology)
as wellas economics, politicalscience, health sciences, institutions and governance,
sociology, ethics and philosophy, and engineering. As such, it will be invaluable for a wide
range of researchers and professionals wanting a cutting-edge synthesis of climate change
issues, and for advanced student courses on climate change. |
