This book spells out, in more detail than usual, what can and
should be done to avert the real risks of climate change disaster.
Nor is it one of complacent congratulation for win-win initiatives,
cautiously incremental steps, and green consumer choices. Climate
Protection and Development summons us to an endeavour worthy of the
resources and ingenuity of the twenty-first century - towards bold
initiatives with big costs, and much bigger benefits. This book
explores the interconnected issues of climate and development,
laying the groundwork for just such a new deal. It presents a
challenging agenda, and highlights the needs and perspectives of
developing countries which may be unfamiliar or uncomfortable to
readers in high-income countries. The unfortunate truth is that any
large country, or group of mid-sized countries, can veto any global
climate solution by refusing to participate, so a solution will
only work if it works for everyone.
