Add to basketClimate Crisis Economics: A Race of Tipping Points draws on economics, political economy, scientific literature, and data to gauge the extent to which our various communities – political, economic, and business – are making the essential leap to a new narrative and policy approach that will accelerate us towards the necessary transition to a decarbonised economy and sustainable future. Time is fast running out to avoid tipping points of no return, warns Mackintosh.
The book draws out policies and practices with both national and local examples, which demonstrate various complementary approaches that are empowering states and people as they seek to pursue the carbon-neutral goal. The author delineates a climate crisis economics approach that is fit for purpose and which can help achieve necessary climate change goals in the decades ahead. This new 2nd edition has been thoroughly updated throughout, including new material on the Biden administration and countries outside the United States and Europe; new chapters on tipping point dangers, and the need for a just transition. It includes key questions for students and supplemental reading for each chapter.
Written in an accessible voice, Climate Crisis Economics: A Race of Tipping Points makes the case for a new model of climate crisis economics, and new narratives to address the climate change dangers ahead. It will appeal to academics, students, investors, and professionals from varying disciplines including politics, international political economy, and international economics.
