Description
For decades, the world’s governments have struggled to move from talk to action on climate. Many now hope that growing public concern will lead to greater policy ambition, but the most widely promoted strategy to address the climate crisis – the use of market-based programmes – hasn’t been working and isn’t ready to scale.
Making Climate Policy Work by Danny Cullenward and David G. Victor shows how the politics of creating and maintaining market-based policies render them ineffective nearly everywhere they have been applied. Reforms can help around the margins, but markets’ problems are structural and won’t disappear with increasing demand for climate solutions.
Facing that reality requires relying more heavily on smart regulation and industrial policy – government-led strategies – to catalyse the transformation that markets promise, but rarely deliver.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
Making Climate Policy Work is lauded for its honest and pragmatic approach to tackling climate change. It challenges the belief that market-based solutions alone can address the issue and offers insights into effective policies for achieving deep decarbonisation. The authors advocate for transformative governmental commitments and practical models that achieve real-world outcomes.
