Produktinformationen zu „Kyoto2 (ePub)“
The Kyoto Protocol, the world's first tentative step towards avoiding the threat of climate change, has failed. We urgently need a new course of action.
In Kyoto2 the author presents us with a strikingly original new solution. Using a system of finite production rights for greenhouse gases, which would be traded by organisations on a global auction, Kyoto2 seeks to succeed where the original agreement failed. Regulated by an independent body, the funds could be poured back into healing the wounds inflicted by climate change. In his combination of idealism with realistic proposals, Tickell exposes the flaws in current approaches, and envisions a fairer and more effective system.
Kyoto2 promises to banish the dejection of the post-Kyoto era, reviving hope that the cure for the crisis facing our planet is still achievable.

Autoren-Porträt von Oliver Tickell
Oliver Tickell is a freelance environment journalist, one-time environment correspondent at The Independent, and a regular columnist in Resurgence magazine where he writes about 'Sensible Solutions' to the world's problems. He has been following the science, politics and economics of climate change for many years. A graduate in Physics from Oxford University, he returned to Oxford to pursue a career in writing and broadcasting after working in the computer software industry in California, Massachusetts and London. In the 2001 General Election he stood as the Green Party candidate for the Henley constituency, where he more than doubled the Green vote. His professional interests have since extended into web design, and he is currently working on an internet-based campaign to remove health-damaging trans fats from the British diet.
