Climate Change Law has grown to a point where over 2,000 pieces of legislation can be found globally. This legislation is supplemented with reporting requirements - for example, large organisations are already required to report their energy usage and carbon footprint under ESOS and SECR - local regulations and the drive to make the circular economy work.
In this book, Louise Smail draws on her deep knowledge of Environmental Law to explore the impact of this legislation. In doing so, she examines the original purpose of the legislation, asking if it achieved what it set out to, and if not, questions what can be done differently and whether we can learn valuable lessons from other jurisdictions.
The book also reflects on the UN Climate Change Conferences - with a special focus on Kyoto and Paris - exploring topics such as global climate legislation, climate change mitigation, adaptation, disaster risk management, and economic incentives.
