"Routledge Handbook of Climate Law and Governance: Courage, Contributions and Compliance recognises UN calls for urgent action reflected in recent reports from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, Aug 2021) and convenes insights from leading legal academic experts and professionals on emerging issues in climate law. The book explores the role of law and governance in advancing global responses to climate change and advancing sustainable development. It is based on careful study of international advances and of the full spectrum of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to the global response to climate change, as submitted by Paris Agreement Parties to the UNFCCC Secretariat, and compiles a compelling, coherent and systematic topical account from across diverse legal jurisdictions. Analytical chapters written by leading experts, practitioners and emerging scholars close to ongoing climate negotiations explore recent legal and institutional innovations related to climate change which can advance the implementation of the Paris Agreement and the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). They focus on examples of raising ambition through law and policy, on reforms of national legal and institutional arrangements to implement NDCs, and on the role of international law and governance in fostering effective Paris Agreement implementation. Presenting a pathway for advancing climate ambition in the coming decades, this book will be of interest to academics, students, professionals and policy makers working in the area of climate law and governance"-- Provided by publisher.
