It discusses the key conceptual, empirical and policy-related issues of low carbon development and takes an international and interdisciplinary approach to the subject by drawing on insights from across the natural sciences and social sciences whilst embedding the discussion in a global context.The first part explores the concept of low carbon development and explains the need for low carbon development in a carbon constrained world. The book then discusses the key issues of socio-economic, political and technological nature for low carbon development, exploring topics such as the political economy, social justice, financing and carbon markets, and technologies and innovation for low carbon development. This is followed by key issues for low carbon development in policy and practice, which is presented based on cross-cutting issues such as low carbon energy, forestry, agriculture and transportation. Afterwards, practical case studies are discussed from low carbon development in low income countries in Africa, middle income countries in Asia and Latin America and high income countries in Europe and North America.Written by an international team of leading academics and practitioners in the field of low carbon development, this book is essential reading for students, academics, professionals and policy-makers interested in the fields of low carbon development, climate change mitigation, climate policy, climate change and development, global environmental change, and environment and development"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aKey Issues in Environment and Sustainability 606 $aEconomic development$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aCarbon dioxide mitigation 606 $aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aEconomic development$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aCarbon dioxide mitigation. 615 0$aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects. 676 $a338.9/27 686 $aBUS068000$aBUS072000$aBUS099000$2bisacsh 701 $aNordensvard$b Johan$f1979-$01009752 701 $aUrban$b Frauke$f1980-$01009753 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815485803321 996 $aLow carbon development$93948779 997 $aUNINA
