Confronting climate change is now understood as a problem of
'decarbonising' the global economy: ending our dependence on
carbon-based fossil fuels. This book explores whether such a
transformation is underway, how it might be accelerated, and the
complex politics of this process. Given the dominance of global
capitalism and free-market ideologies, decarbonisation is dependent
on creating carbon markets and engaging powerful actors in the
world of business and finance. Climate Capitalism assesses the huge
political dilemmas this poses, and the need to challenge the
entrenched power of many corporations, the culture of energy use,
and global inequalities in energy consumption. Climate Capitalism
is essential reading for anyone wanting to better understand the
challenge we face. It will also inform a range of student courses
in environmental studies, development studies, international
relations, and business programmes.
