As climate change worsens, new robust leadership is imperative. The EU, US and China Tackling Climate Change examines why a close collaboration between the EU and China may result in the necessary impetus to solidify a vision and a roadmap for our common future in the Anthropocene. Kalantzakos introduces a novel perspective and narrative on climate action leadership through an analysis of international relations. She argues that a close EU-China collaboration, which does not carry the baggage of an imbedded competition for supremacy, may best help the global community move towards a low carbon future and navigate the new challenges of the Anthropocene. Overall, Kalantzakos demonstrates how Europe and China, already strategic partners, can exercise global leadership in an area of crucial common interest through their web of relations, substantial development aid, and the use of soft power tools throughout the developing world. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of environmental politics, international relations, climate change and energy law and policy."--Provided by publisher. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in environmental policy. 606 $aclimate change$9eng$2eurovoc 606 $aenvironmental policy$9eng$2eurovoc 606 $agovernment policy$9eng$2eurovoc 606 $ainternational relations$9eng$2eurovoc 606 $ainternational cooperation$9eng$2eurovoc 606 $asustainable development$9eng$2eurovoc 606 $aUE/CE Union européenne$9fre$2ECLAS 606 $aEuropean Union$9eng$2eurovoc 606 $aUnited States$9eng$2eurovoc 606 $aChina$9eng$2eurovoc 615 7$aclimate change. 615 7$aenvironmental policy. 615 7$agovernment policy. 615 7$ainternational relations. 615 7$ainternational cooperation. 615 7$asustainable development. 615 7$aUE/CE Union européenne 615 7$aEuropean Union. 615 7$aUnited States. 615 7$aChina. 700 $aKalantzakos$b Sophia$01207382 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792906003321 996 $aThe EU, US and China tackling climate change$93719038 997 $aUNINA
