And this is further underlined by a more recent development: observed sea level rise. In a thorough but not overly technical approach, Adapting to Sea Level Rise in the Coastal Zone: Law and Policy Considerations provides a legal-policy framework for facing the challenges of sea level rise. The book includes an analysis of sea level rise adaptation strategies that examines the legal impacts of coastal land use decisions based on the current interpretation of private property rights in relation to public control over those rights. The author discusses the science behind sea level rise and highlights policy complexities and options. He then presents an overview of related legalities, and bringing it all together, applies the principles offered in the book, concluding with strategies and solutions and a perspective on the future. If we accept the premise that sea level rise is occurring and will continue for the foreseeable future, then we must begin to consider policy responses to this risk in coastal regions. Part of any pragmatic policy response must include a review of the options available to public institutions when developing and implementing rational adaptation policies. This book offers practical legal/policy approaches to sea level rise adaptation that promotes sound planning in the face of climate change and rising seas. 606 $aSea level$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aCoast changes 606 $aCoastal zone management$xGovernment policy 606 $aEnvironmental policy 606 $aEnvironmental law 615 0$aSea level$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aCoast changes. 615 0$aCoastal zone management$xGovernment policy. 615 0$aEnvironmental policy. 615 0$aEnvironmental law. 676 $a363.34 700 $aMcGuire$b Chad J.$01465754 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786243803321 996 $aAdapting to Sea Level Rise in the Coastal Zone$93765776 997 $aUNINA
