Climate Law in Australia provides the first extended account of
Australia's new climate law. It examines key federal and state
legislation and the main cases brought before Australian courts. It
combines incisive legal analysis with a deep understanding of
climate-related issues and policy. The authors include leading
academics such as Professors Robyn Eckersley, David Farrier, Rob
Fowler and Jan McDonald, and leading practitioners such as Charles
Berger, Kirsty Ruddock, Chris McGrath, Allison Warburton and
Martijn Wilder. The editors are Professor Tim Bonyhady, Director of
the Australian Centre for Environmental Law at the Australian
National University, and Dr Peter Christoff of the University of
Melbourne and Vice President of the Australian Conservation
Foundation. The book examines pivotal issues in Australian climate
law and policy the Kyoto Protocol and its alternatives, emissions
targets, carbon trading, geosequestration, nuclear decision-making,
adaptation to climate change and legal liability. It contains
detailed analysis of the leading cases involving the Hazelwood
power station, the Anvil Hill, Xstrata and Bowen Basin coal mines,
and the Bald Hills and Taralga wind farms. Climate Law in Australia
explores both the need for conventional legal regulation and the
potential of economic responses to climate change. It shows how
climate law has grown in Australia - and how far the law still has
to go.
