How can the threat of climate change be reduced without impairing the global economy?

Climatology and climate change

1

Under one cover, Frank Incropera provides a comprehensive, objective, and critical assessment of all issues germane to the climate change debate: • underlying science • technology options for mitigating the effects of climate change • economic ramifications • cultural and behavioural issues

• influence of special interests and public policy • geopolitical issues • ethical implications

The science of climate is treated in depth, but in an approachable and accessible manner. A strong case is made for the reality of anthropogenic climate change, while deconstructing opposing views and confronting the range of issues that remain uncertain. A pragmatic approach is taken on options for mitigating the effects of climate change. The strengths and weaknesses of the options are identified, including limitations that render some problematic and measures that must be taken to make others more attractive. Assessments of future energy options are provided, including economic considerations, targets of opportunity for innovation, and barriers imposed by special interests, politics, and human behavior.

How far will it be possible to adapt to changes of climate? John Houghton’s definitive, full colour guide to climate change answers these questions and more by providing the best and latest information available, including the latest IPCC results. The simple, logical flow of ideas gives an invaluable grounding in the science, as well as the physical and human impacts of climate change, for undergraduate students across a wide range of disciplines.

‘If you’re looking for an authoritative, comprehensive – and yet highly accessible – treatment of climate change science, impacts, and solutions, look no further ….’

10

Professor Michael Mann, Pennsylvania State University; author of The Hockey Stick and the Climate Wars ‘... a very important update of a major text, marked particularly by the inclusion of data and illustrations based on the newest IPCC resources.’

• Accessible to both scientists and nonscientists, the text avoids mathematical equations and includes more technical material in boxes.

Geomorphology and physical geography 10

Dr Peter G. Knight, Keele University

• Simple figures help students to understand visually the conclusions the science leads to, without being overwhelmed by vast amounts of data.

‘... an excellent basis for students and non-scientists to understand climate change with its manifold impacts and consequences for humankind and for our common planet.’

• Questions for students to consider and test their understanding are included in each chapter, along with carefully selected further reading to expand their knowledge.

Transforming Energy

Transforming Energy

Climate change will be an ecological and humanitarian catastrophe unless we move quickly to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions. Policy experts advise us that we need to make major changes to our lifestyles, and our governments need to agree to globally binding treaties and implement market instruments like carbon taxes. This advice is a mistake: it treats technological innovation as being at the periphery of the climate policy challenge. Instead, technological innovation needs to be at its core; we will phase out emissions when and only when the technologies to replace fossil fuels are good enough, and policies need to support these new technologies quickly and directly. Anyone with an interest in climate change and energy policy will find this book forwardthinking and invaluable. Professional policy makers, climate and energy policy researchers, and students of energy and public policy, economics, political science, environmental studies, and geography will find this book especially stimulating.

PATT

‘Anthony Patt challenges the received wisdom of climate policy head on.… His book serves as a wake-up call for climate policy decision makers. In the end, the actual performance of greenhouse gas mitigation policy instruments counts, not their theoretical beauty.’ – Axel Michaelowa, University of Zurich

Climate Justice and Disaster Law Rosemary Lyster University of Sydney

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. ‘All who care about environmental and climate issues should feel deeply indebted to Rosemary Lyster. It is indeed fortunate that a distinguished lawyer and ethicist has immersed herself in the technicalities of this field, and written an authoritative book that is not only hugely informative but which also sets out pathways towards a just and effective response to the threats of climatic disasters.’ Lord Martin Rees, Astronomer Royal, Fellow of Trinity College and Emeritus Professor, University of Cambridge

managerial identity, and emotional reactions to climate change. ‘This book makes clear that climate change is not a ‘problem’ for which there can be a ‘solution’. It requires a re-examination of the core structures of our society, and in particular our economy. Using solid research and analysis, Christopher Wright and Daniel Nyberg untangle the complex and multiple ways that corporations are shaping humanity’s response to the climate crisis, ways that are unfortunately inadequate to the challenge at hand.

The Price of Oil Roberto F. Aguilera Curtin University, Perth

and Marian Radetzki Luleå Tekniska Universitet, Sweden

Written for a broad readership, this book provides an in-depth examination of oil’s extraordinary price increase over the past few decades. The authors explain why we are at a turning point where scarcity, uncertain supply and high prices will be replaced by abundance, undisturbed availability and suppressed price levels. ‘This cheerfully iconoclastic analysis of the past, present and future of the petroleum industry makes a compelling read. Whilst some of its conclusions will be undoubtedly challenged as contradicting the conventional wisdom, it carefully sets out their underlying logic and assumptions. That applies as much to the first part that anatomises the behaviour of crude oil prices over the past forty years as to the subsequent discussion of the shale oil revolution and its implications. Although the authors’ own views of the future are clear they are careful to stress the uncertainties and are at pains to provide a range of possible futures. The book should be required reading not just for specialists but for all
