Climate Change Policy in the United States - The Science, the Politics and the Prospects for Change (Paperback)

This overview of global warming and its human causes examines the international agreements regarding climate change and the U.S. response to those agreements, as well as key provisions of the Kyoto Protocol, to explain the difficulties of any subsequent treaties. Framing the scientific debate against moral, ethical, and religious considerations, the book offers potential solutions. It features seven maps and tables, index, bibliography, and notes.
