Description
Engineering and Governing the Climate provides a comprehensive analysis of the ethical and political challenges inherent in addressing climate change through technological innovation and policy frameworks. The book delves into geoengineering proposals, carbon management strategies, and the governance structures necessary to implement large-scale climate interventions responsibly.
Xavier Landes presents critical perspectives on who decides climate policy, how power dynamics influence decision-making, and what ethical obligations we have to present and future generations. The work bridges scientific understanding with philosophical inquiry, examining questions of justice, equity, and sustainability in climate action. It addresses controversies surrounding various climate engineering approaches while considering international cooperation, regulatory challenges, and the role of stakeholders in shaping climate governance.
This key resource for scholars, policymakers, and students interested in climate sustainability offers nuanced insights into the intersection of ethics, politics, and environmental management in the context of global climate challenges.
