Plenty of titles present exposes of the climate change coming: David Victor's Climate Change provides a political approach, debating American policy options in climate change and surveying the economic and social costs of changing climate conditions. Three contrasting perspectives are offered: one emphasizes the ability of wealthy societies to adapt, a second urges new attention to the defunct Kyoto Protocol, a third urges unilateral action creating a market for low-carbon emission technologies around the world. All provide important discussions.
