Low Carbon Development

If—as many environmental experts maintain—global climate change is the greatest challenge of our times, the need for a serious, and universal, commitment to low-carbon development is more urgent than ever. Low-carbon development might be described as climate-friendly growth that enables humanity to flourish fairly and equitably within the ecological limits of our planet, and, perhaps unsurprisingly, scholarly work on the topic is booming in research centres around the world. Now, this new Routledge collection enables users to make sense of the most important academic thinking to date.

With comprehensive introductions to each volume, newly written by the editors, which place the collected material in the context of current research and practice, Low-Carbon Development is an essential work of reference and a vital research tool for scholars, researchers, students, practitioners, and policy-makers.
