This book redefines climate protection measures and resets climate protection targets in accordance with what is scientifically necessary by introducing new actors (e.g., the financial industry as an investor and political actor), by highlighting new goals, and by introducing new measures (global feed-in-tariff; ending all subsidies for fossil energies). The reader is provided with a sometimes provocative overview of recent developments and failures, but also successful instruments for fighting climate change and global warming. The book shows that investment in renewables and a sustainable economy is not only a worthwhile cause but has also economic value.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
