Brief description: Michael G. Faure is Professor of Comparative and International Environmental Law at Maastricht University and Academic Director of the Maastricht European Institute for Transnational Legal Research.
Review Quotes: What makes this book so successful is its sensitivity to the reality of the challenge of cutting carbon emissions. Faure and Partain do not endorse CCS, but they do explain the approach that could be taken to help offset the risks presented by this type of technology, albeit though, as they point out, it is not yet possible to provide a definitive answer. Nevertheless, legal experts and policymakers interested in climate change will find this book an indispensable source.--This Century's Review, December 2017--
