H. Parry and Roberton C. Williams III""Developing policies that will keep climate change in check has become a global priority, as increasing greenhouse gas emissions contribute to extreme weather patterns. If these emissions remain unabated, changes in global temperatures and the subsequent relocation of human settlements and economic activities will have huge economic and social impacts on the world's population. The 2010 annual Land Policy Conference provided a forum for international scholars and policy makers to discuss topics including the impacts of climate change on land use; how energy and climate change policies affect land resource allocation and land use planning; relationships among urban form, transportation, and CO2 emissions; market-based approaches to environmental conservation; and global ability to deal with climate change and land management.Land Policy SeriesLand use, UrbanCongressesClimatic changesGovernment policyCongressesClimatic changesEnvironmental aspectsCongressesLand use, UrbanClimatic changesGovernment policyClimatic changesEnvironmental aspects333.7313Ingram Gregory K261849Hong Yu-hung869255MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910963328603321Climate change and land policies4479559UNINA
