Description
"Climate change is one of the most complex issues facing policy makers today. Controlling the emissions that cause global warming will require societies to incur costs now while uncertain benefits accrue in the distant future." "This book offers three contrasting perspectives, each cast as a presidential speech. One emphasizes the ability of modern, wealthy societies to adapt to the changing climate. A second speech urges reengagement with the Kyoto Protocol while demanding reforms that would make Kyoto more effective. A third speech urges unilateral action that would create a market for low-carbon emission technologies from the "bottom up," in contrast with top-down international treaties such as Koyto." "A memorandum to the president explains the multidimensional nature of this critical issue and an extensive appendix includes scientific reports, government speeches, legislative proposals, and further readings."--BOOK JACKET.
