The first book to focus on the legal aspects of climate engineering, making recommendations for future laws and governance.

Recenzje

'A book that should be read also by non-legal researchers, Climate Engineering and the Law will hopefully spur similar academic exercises, thus ultimately enhancing the collective wisdom desperately needed to turn anthropogenic manipulation of the planet into a shield against climate change, rather than a dreadful double-edged sword for self-destruction.' Matteo Fermeglia, Carbon & Climate Law Review
