Economic drivers of greenhouse gas emissions -- pt. 2. Options for greenhouse gas mitigation -- pt. 3. International climate policy -- pt. 4. Conclusions. 330 $aThough the impact of climate change will most likely be greatest with the already poor and vulnerable populations in the developing world, much of the writing about the costs and benefits of different policies to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is by Western scholars, working in advanced industrialized economies. Drawing the majority of its contributions from authors based at Indian universities and other research centers, India and Global Climate Change provides a developing world perspective on the debate. With a population of over one billion, and an economy that is undergoing substantial restructuring and greatly increased economic growth after a number of years of stagnation, India has an exceptional stake in the debate about climate change policy. Using the Indian example, this volume looks at such policy issues as the energy economy relationships that drive GHG emissions; the options and costs for restricting GHG emissions while promoting sustainable development; and the design of innovative mechanisms for expanded international cooperation with GHG mitigation. 606 $aClimatic changes$xGovernment policy$zIndia 606 $aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects$zIndia 606 $aGreenhouse gas mitigation$xGovernment policy$zIndia 606 $aGreenhouse gas mitigation$xEconomic aspects$zIndia 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aClimatic changes$xGovernment policy 615 0$aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aGreenhouse gas mitigation$xGovernment policy 615 0$aGreenhouse gas mitigation$xEconomic aspects 676 $a363.738/74/0954 701 $aToman$b Michael A$0734054 701 $aChakravorty$b Ujjayant$0485564 701 $aGupta$b Shreekant$0889515 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452366303321 996 $aIndia and global climate change$91987073 997 $aUNINA
