Global warming is one of today's greatest challenges. The science
of climate change leaves no doubt that policies to cut emissions
are overdue. Yet, after twenty years of international talks and
treaties, the world is now in gridlock about how best to do this.
David G. Victor argues that such gridlock has arisen because
international talks have drifted away from the reality of what
countries are willing and able to implement at home. Most of the
lessons that policy makers have drawn from the history of other
international environmental problems won't actually work on the
problem of global warming. Victor argues that a radical rethinking
of global warming policy is required and shows how to make
international law on global warming more effective. This book
provides a roadmap to a lower carbon future based on encouraging
bottom-up initiatives at national, regional and global levels,
leveraging national self-interest rather than wishful thinking.
