Changing Climate, Changing Economy

Edited by Jean-Philippe Touffut

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: How did climate change become an economic issue? Why is economic discourse so influential on the public policy of climate change? How can it best contribute to the scientific and public debates? Nine eminent scholars explain in this book both how economics has changed environmental understanding and how the study of climate change has modified the economy.
