Environmental Studies: Climate Change

Despite three decades of scientists' warnings and environmentalists' best efforts, the political will and public engagement necessary to fuel robust action on global climate change remain in short supply. Wilkinson shows that faith-based efforts are emerging and strengthening to address this problem.

Responding to a need for a deeper and more nuanced understanding of the consequences of climate change, this book brings experts in climate science, engineering, urban planning, and conservation biology into conversation with scholars in law, geography, anthropology and ethics.

This book examines the current status of environmental human rights at the international, regional, and national levels and provides a critical analysis of possible future developments in this area, particularly in the context of a changing climate.

'Facing Climate Change' explains why people refuse to accept evidence of a warming planet and shows how to move past partisanship to reach a consensus for action.
