After numerous scienti?c papers and books on most aspects of
climate change and the design of pro-environmental policies
(including some that suit some industrial lobby or another), is
there relevance for another book and what is the purported role of
this one? Is this yet another academic exercise or "much ado about
nothing"? Do we have to bother designing green economic policies
and incur transaction costs of this effort? Are there shortcomings
of existing policies if we care to live "happily" on this planet?
Is it not enough to care for the current generations so that the
future generations can take care of themselves (or even be given
the incentives for in- vations - for lack of fully provided
resources)? What can "we" do about the green economic policies (and
what are these anyway)? What trade-offs, if any, are re- vant in
foregoing some bene?ts and in incurring some costs (not all of
which can be expressed in monetary units)? What are the overarching
objectives and priorities in the current context? What economic and
other approaches are relevant for atta- ing the objectives? These
are some of the questions the author re?ected in writing this book.
