Climate change poses one of the greatest challenges for human
society in the twenty-first century, yet there is a major
disconnect between our actions to deal with it and the gravity of
the threat it implies. In a world where the fate of countries is
increasingly intertwined, how should we think about and,
accordingly, how should we manage the types of risk posed by
anthropogenic climate change?
The problem is multi-faceted, and involves not only technical
and policy specific approaches, but also questions of social
justice and sustainability. In this volume the editors have
assembled a unique range of contributors who together examine the
intersection between the science, politics, economics and ethics of
climate change. The book includes perspectives from some of the
world's foremost commentators in their fields, ranging from leading
scientists to political theorists, to high profile policymakers and
practitioners. They offer a critical new approach to thinking about
climate change, and help express a common desire for a more
equitable society and a more sustainable way of life.
