| Description: |
Adapting to the likely impacts of climate change requires technological innovation as well as behavioural and attitudinal change. This book addresses challenges across sector interests and considers whether existing regulatory and governance frameworks are supportive, adaptable or barriers to necessary change. |
| Synopsis: |
While climate policy has focused overwhelmingly on the science and on reducing emissions, policy makers are increasingly focused on how to adapt to changes are already 'locked in', changes that will bring significant social economic and environmental impacts. Adaptation will require technological innovation as well as behavioural and attitudinal change. This book covers the legal dimensions of adaptation and addresses challenges across sector interests. It considers whether existing regulatory and governance frameworks are supportive, adaptable or barriers to necessary change. The authors cover the key issues: sea level rise, planning; water security; climate justice; conservation regimes; the role of the courts; insurance; compensation; and the law of disasters. |
