Some have argued that the rate and scale of human-induced global
environmental change is so significant that it now constitutes a
new geological epoch in the Earth's history called the Anthropocene
(Zalasiewicz et al, 2011; Steffen et al, 2011). More than ever,
there is a need to have appropriate and effective environmental
policies that address the challenges of climate change,
biodiversity, food, water and energy insecurity, environmental
pollution, poverty alleviation and environmental equity. The short
guide to environmental policy provides a concise introduction to
post-war environmental policies, bringing together perspectives
from a range of fields including economics, sociology, politics and
social policy. It covers a broad range of issues, including causes
and effects of contemporary environmental issues, policy approaches
to addressing environmental problems, challenges to implementing
environmental policies and future environmental challenges. This
book is an essential introduction to all those interested in how
policies can address environmental problems.
