Research Handbook on Climate Change Mitigation Law (Hardcover, 2nd edition)

This meticulously revised second edition provides a comparative overview of climate change mitigation issues and international regulatory approaches, bringing together expert contributors to analyse key sectors such as energy, transport, cities, industry, land use, agriculture and waste. Governments around the world have been investigating techniques to reduce greenhouse gas emissions for decades. This detailed Research Handbook considers the spectrum of legal and market-based instruments, as well as strategies and policies adopted around the world, to propose more effective, comprehensive and responsive ways of managing climate change mitigation. As well as taking stock of the current and proposed legal instruments, the book investigates the wider policy and economic aspects of coping with climate change. It provides a comparative overview of key issues across Europe, the United States, Asia-Pacific and the BRICS countries, and discusses domestic, regional and international law and governance. Important issues such as carbon trading, financing and litigation are also addressed. This timely Research Handbook will be an authoritative resource for scholars of climate change law and policy, whilst also providing a rigorous overview for upper-level students. Policymakers will gain insights from the comparative perspectives, and practitioners will appreciate the broad range of practical issues addressed.
