Beyond Bali: Strategic Issues for the Post-2012 Climate Change Regime - Christian Egenhofer

The year 2007 witnessed a new momentum toward a global response to climate change. In December, negotiations in Bali will attempt to set out a roadmap toward a global climate regime. Whatever concrete decisions are made in Bali, there is an emerging consensus that any global response will need to include a well-defined number of strategic policy areas: technology, adaptation, reversal of deforestation, commitments of developing countries, market-based instruments, and carbon markets. In this book, senior policymakers, parliamentarians, business executives, and researchers from both industrialized and developing countries contribute short, authoritative think-pieces on the key issues for the climate change agenda from Bali until a post-2012 settlement.
