Responding to Global Warming: The Technology, Economics and Politics of Sustainable EnergyZed Books, 1994 - 304 pages With the Framework Convention on Climate Change, action to prevent possible global warming is on the agenda.

Peter Read argues that the problem can be tackled, however, at a much more affordable cost than commonly realized, and in ways likely both to provide incentives to energy corporations and to improve the development prospects of many countries in the South. |
