A handbook designed to help the appraiser in selecting phrases and
words that accurately describe a broad range of critical rating factors.
The Handbook of Multi-Level Climate Actions emphasizes the need for
significant climate action by every capable person on the planet at
multiple levels of human experience and society. This includes
individuals/households, formal and informal groups,
organizations/communities, from local to global, and all levels of
businesses, governments, and nonprofit organizations. It highlights
the many ways that our species can meet the climate crisis and how
entities at every level of human experience are, could be, and
should be developing and implementing climate solutions, including
those advancing energy efficiency, renewable energy utilization,
and nature’s ability to sequester carbon. Nearly two dozen
knowledgeable, caring, and active authors, representing both
academics and practitioners, from multiple countries and
disciplines, have risen to the challenge of attempting to motivate
as many people as possible to take whatever actions they can as
urgently as possible, to ensure that future generations of both
humans and non-humans on this planet will have a sustainable
climate that meets their on-going needs. This Handbook is an
important work for scholars and practitioners working in the realm
of environmental and climate issues, sustainability and CSR. It
provides a comprehensive exploration of the current global
situation, while also inspiring immediate action and forward
thinking.
This comprehensive Companion examines the achievements and
challenges of the International Criminal Court (ICC), the world's
first permanent international criminal tribunal. It provides an
overview of the first two decades of the ICC's existence,
investigating the dominant narratives and counter-narratives that
have emerged about the institution and its work. In this timely
work, an international team of scholars and experts evaluate the
ICC's actual and potential role in the world by exploring some of
the central issues related to its creation, mandate, and
operations. Chapters address topics ranging from the negotiation
dynamics surrounding the drafting of the Rome Statute, to the roles
of the Office of the Prosecutor, judges, defence and victims, as
well as key controversies around peace and justice, selectivity of
cases and situations, and gender-sensitivity. This Companion is
critical reading for scholars, students and practitioners of
international criminal law. Its mixture of theoretical perspectives
and case study analysis will also be of interest to those studying
and working in global justice and international law more broadly,
including in transitional justice, human rights law, public
international law and international relations.
