Global Warming Gridlock
ISBN: 9780521865012 / Angielski / Twarda / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Global warming is one of today's greatest challenges.

Most of the lessons that policy makers have drawn from the history of other international environmental problems won't actually work on the problem of global...
