'Makes a substantial contribution to the practical, effective
analysis of climate change mitigation options in developing
countries.' Development And Cooperation 'The book is an excellent
exercise and a good source of detailed information, and a basis for
further discussions. Any person interested in this major
environmental problem should read it.' International Journal of
Environment and Pollution 'Markandya and Halsnaes' collection is
thoughtfully put together and can be recommended to all the
practitioners in the fields of climate change and sustainable
development.' The Journal of Energy Literature This text argues
that the policies pursued by developing countries will be crucial
in determining the progress of climate change. Many are
industrializing rapidly and the largest, particularly China and
India, could have an impact at least as significant as that of the
already industrialized economies - the reason given by President
Bush for taking the US out of the Kyoto Protocol. The future of
sustainable development in large measure depends on developing
countries. This book develops a pragmatic framework for evaluating
the climate change options faced by each developing country,
depending on their individual circumstances. It assesses present
methods, suggests how these might be improved, and proposes ways in
which social and developmental aspects can be taken into account.
Its discussion of the issues and the methods presented contribute
to the practical analysis of climate change mitigation options in
developing countries. The book should be useful to professionals,
governments, international organizations and environmental groups
working on climate change issues; as well as researchers, academics
and students in economics, environmental and development studies
and international affairs.
