Argument in the Greenhouse - The International Economics of Controlling Global Warming (Paperback)

How can greenhouse gases be controlled and reduced - will it be in time?
This book adds a significant new contribution to the crucial climate change/global warming debate. It incorporates the key political and legal considerations into 'real world', applied economic analysis. The book's focus on the wider political economy of the problem is unique.
All the key issues of controlling Climate Change (costs, timing and degree of stabilisation, ecological tax, role of developing countries, and evolution of international agreements) are placed firmly within the current legal and political economy context, with state of the art economic techniques introduced to analyse the different policy proposals.
Covering both the developing and developed world, this book identifies important new policies to foster effective agreements on emmissions - realistic policies which are likely to receive actual support at both international and domestic levels.
