Description of Item

Written from the unique and informed perspective of someone who has served as an advisor to every interested stakeholder, Unlocking the Global Warming Toolbox is the first and only book to focus on the key options for designing and implementing equitable and goal-specific carbon regulation. Since CO2, once emitted, remains warming the atmosphere for a century after its release, the choices made now may push us past the point of no return in terms of global warming. 

This book is a regulatory toolkit holding the policy and legal implements necessary to shape the carbon future. It showcases the ongoing legal and regulatory issues that will be worked out both in the United States and in international programs for years, and highlights the lasting issues related to crafting successful carbon control. Unlocking the Global Warming Toolbox is a must-have for those who would regulate carbon and those who would be subject to that regulation—policymakers, regulators, industry, nongovernmental organizations, and consumers. 

Features & Benefits

  • Examines the science of global warming, its impacts, and the time remaining to regulate
  • Surveys the Kyoto Protocol, the European Union regulatory experience with carbon, and the U.S. system of carbon control embodied in state and regional programs
  • Explores in detail the pivotal legal and regulatory issues surrounding global carbon regulation, such as leakage and additionality

  • Management
  • Energy lending and finance professionals
  • Anyone who seeks to understand how, or relies upon, energy markets
  • Students
