Описание: It appears possible to reduce climate change by blocking a small portion of incoming sunlight. This `solar geoengineering` is receiving increasing attention but poses its own risks and is controversial. Drawing from law, political science, and economics, this volume explores how solar geoengineering is, could, and should be governed.

Автор: Whitfield Stephen Название: Adapting to Climate Uncertainty in African Agriculture ISBN: 1138849332 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781138849334 Издательство: Taylor&Francis Рейтинг: Цена: 30610.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
Future climatic and agro-ecological changes in Africa are uncertain and associated with high degrees of spatial and temporal variability and this change is differently simulated within divergent climate-crop models and in controlled crop breeding stations. Furthermore, uncertainty emerges in local contexts, not just in response to climatic systems, but to social, economic, and political systems, and often with implications for the appropriateness and adoption of technologies or the success of alternative cropping systems.
This book examines the challenges of adaptation in smallholder farming in Africa, analysing the social, economic, political and climatic uncertainties that impact on agriculture in the region and the range of solutions proposed. Drawing on case studies of genetically modified crops, conservation agriculture, and other 'climate smart' solutions in eastern and southern Africa, the book identifies how uncertainties are framed 'from above' as well experienced 'from below', by farmers themselves. It provides a compelling insight into why ideas about adaptation emerge, from whom, and with what implications.
This book offers a unique perspective and will be highly relevant to students of climate change adaptation, food security and poverty alleviation, as well as policy-makers and field practitioners in international development and agronomy.

Описание: This book is for interdisciplinary scholars in science, social sciences, economics and law who are interested in the growing phenomenon of climate disasters. It develops a unique theory of climate justice regarding extreme weather and slow onset events, which, when they intersect with vulnerability and exposure, create climate disasters.
Автор: Acar, Sevil Название: Macroeconomics of Climate Change in a Dualistic Economy ISBN: 0128135190 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780128135198 Издательство: Elsevier Science Рейтинг: Цена: 88690.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание:
Macroeconomics of Climate Change in a Dualistic Economy: A Regional General Equilibrium Analysis generates significant, genuinely novel insights about dual economies and sustainable economic growth. These insights are generalize-able and applicable worldwide. The authors overcome existing limitations in general equilibrium modeling. By concentrating on tensions between green growth and dualism, they consider the global efforts against climate change and opposition by specific countries based on economic development needs. Using Turkey as their primary example, they address these two most discussed and difficult issues related to policy setting, blazing a path for those seeking an applied economic research framework to study such economic considerations.
Couples a CGE climate change mitigation policy analysis with a dual economy approach
Presents methods to model and assess policy instruments for mitigating climate change
Provides data sets and models on a freely-accessible companion website
Offers a path for those seeking an applied economic research framework to study economic considerations

The Behavioral Economics of Climate Change: Adaptation Behaviors, Global Public Goods, Breakthrough Technologies, and Policy-Making shows readers how to understand mitigation strategies emerging from global warming policy discussions and the ways that changing climate conditions can alter these strategies. Through quantitative analyses, case studies and policy examples, this bottom-up approach to climate change economics gives readers the tools to create effective responses to global warming. This self-contained book on the topic covers key scientific and economic subjects in an applied, innovative and immediately relevant fashion.

Описание: This book analyses energy development in the broader context of economic and social changes, and evaluates the implications of ecological limits to growth on the economic system whilst arguing that the existing capitalist system is fundamentally incompatible with ecological sustainability. The Chinese context is naturally central to this.

Описание: The overarching argument in this book contends that, while mitigation strategies like solar and wind energy go much further to meet feminist objectives and virtues, geoengineering is not consistent with the values of justice as articulated in Longino`s feminist approach to science.
Автор: Rene Uruena Название: No Citizens Here: Global Subjects and Participation in International Law ISBN: 9004220690 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004220690 Издательство: Brill Цена: 219160.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: International legal scholarship has traditionally celebrated the possibility of individuals being considered as subjects of international law. This book challenges that narrative, and reveals hidden patterns in the way we think about legal subjects in global governance. Building on the notion of a risk society, this book argues that international law creates fragmented subjectivities, whose conflicting identities help perpetuate a certain global loss of sense that is characteristic of our times. An innovative contribution that draws on a wealth of international legal materials (including human rights, EU law, international economic law, and international organizations), this book is useful to those with an interest in international legal theory, new approaches to international law, global constitutionalism, and global administrative law.
