Schneider -- - Appendix A: Climate negotiation history - Leonie Haimson -- - Appendix B: "Hot air" and "hot air" policies - Reimund Schwarze Annotation Questions surrounding the issue of climate change are evolving from "Is it happening?" to "What can be done about it?" The primary obstacles to addressing it at this point are not scientific but political and economic; nonetheless a quick resolution is unlikely.Ignorance and confusion surrounding the issue -- including a lack of understanding of climate science, its implications for the environment and society, and the range of policy options available -- contributes to the political morass over dealing with climate change in which we find ourselves. Climate Change Policyaddresses that situation by bringing together a wide range of new writings from leading experts that examine the many dimensions of the topics most important in understanding climate change and policies to combat it. Chapters consider: climate science in historical perspective analysis of uncertainties in climate science and policy the economics of climate policy North-South and intergenerational equity issues the role of business and industry in climate solutions policy mechanisms including joint implementation, emissions trading, and the so-called clean development mechanism Regardless of the fate of the Kyoto Protocol, the issues raised in that debate will persist as new climate protection regimes emerge; this volume treats most of those topics. Tying the chapters together is a shared conclusion that climate change is a real and serious problem, and that we as a society have an obligation not merely to adapt to it but to mitigate it in whatever intelligent ways we can develop. Cost-effectiveness is not disdained, but neither is the imperative for valuing species threatened by rapid climate change |

Schneider -- - Appendix A: Climate negotiation history - Leonie Haimson -- - Appendix B: "Hot air" and "hot air" policies - Reimund Schwarze Annotation Questions surrounding the issue of climate change are evolving from "Is it happening?" to "What can be done about it?" The primary obstacles to addressing it at this point are not scientific but political and economic; nonetheless a quick resolution is unlikely.Ignorance and confusion surrounding the issue -- including a lack of understanding of climate science, its implications for the environment and society, and the range of policy options available -- contributes to the political morass over dealing with climate change in which we find ourselves. Climate Change Policyaddresses that situation by bringing together a wide range of new writings from leading experts that examine the many dimensions of the topics most important in understanding climate change and policies to combat it. Chapters consider: climate science in historical perspective analysis of uncertainties in climate science and policy the economics of climate policy North-South and intergenerational equity issues the role of business and industry in climate solutions policy mechanisms including joint implementation, emissions trading, and the so-called clean development mechanism Regardless of the fate of the Kyoto Protocol, the issues raised in that debate will persist as new climate protection regimes emerge; this volume treats most of those topics. Tying the chapters together is a shared conclusion that climate change is a real and serious problem, and that we as a society have an obligation not merely to adapt to it but to mitigate it in whatever intelligent ways we can develop. Cost-effectiveness is not disdained, but neither is the imperative for valuing species threatened by rapid climate change Climat / Changements / Politique gouvernementale TECHNOLOGY & ENGINEERING / Environmental / Pollution Control bisacsh Climatic changes / Government policy fast Klimaänderung Politik Climatic changes Government policy Umweltpolitik (DE-588)4078523-3 gnd rswk-swf Klimaänderung (DE-588)4164199-1 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Klimaänderung (DE-588)4164199-1 s Umweltpolitik (DE-588)4078523-3 s 2\p DE-604 Schneider, Stephen H. 1945-2010 Sonstige (DE-588)170213382 oth Rosencranz, Armin Sonstige oth Niles, John O.
