Climate governance has failed. This book diagnoses climate governance as if it were a sick patient, uncovering the fundamental factors causing the worsening climate crisis. It distills decades of global climate negotiations to reveal the features of international relations that are impeding climate action, and it identifies political obstacles to climate governance across a variety of countries in the Americas, Asia and Europe. The psychosocial aspects of climate change are explored to show how human nature, overconsumption and global capitalism conspire to stymy climate action. Remedies are suggested for how to overcome hurdles to effective climate governance internationally and nationally, with ideas provided for individuals to help them align their own interests with those of the global environment. Covering all of the major recent events in climate politics and governance, this is an accessible book for concerned readers who want to understand the climate crisis."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Climatic changes. 650 0 $a Climatic changes $x Government policy. 650 0 $a Climatic changes $x International cooperation. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20221203065853.0 952 $l UUAX975 $d 20210407011537.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9DC14E80976611EB8543981820ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
