This textbook, by three experts in the field, provides a
comprehensive overview of international climate change law. Climate
change is one of the fundamental challenges facing the world today,
and is the cause of significant international concern. In response,
states have created an international climate regime. The treaties
that comprise the regime - the 1992 United Nations Framework
Convention on Climate Change, the 1997 Kyoto Protocol and the 2015
Paris Agreement establish a system of governance to address climate
change and its impacts. This book provides a clear analytical guide
to the climate regime, as well as other relevant international
legal rules. The book begins by locating international climate
change law within the broader context of international law and
international environmental law. It considers the evolution of the
international climate change regime, and the process of law-making
that has led to it. It examines the key provisions of the Framework
Convention, the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement. It analyses
the principles and obligations that underpin the climate regime, as
well as the elaborate institutional and governance architecture
that has been created at successive international conferences to
develop commitments and promote transparency and compliance. The
final two chapters address the polycentric nature of international
climate change law, as well as the intersections of international
climate change law with other areas of international regulation.
This book is an essential introduction to international climate
change law for students, scholars and negotiators.
