      abstract = {Governments around the world have been trying to find ways  to reduce greenhouse gas emissions for decades. This  detailed Handbook considers the spectrum of legal and  market-based instruments as well as strategies and policies  adopted around the world and suggests more effective,  comprehensive and responsive ways of managing climate  change mitigation.  As well as taking stock of the current  and proposed legal instruments, the book looks at the wider  policy and economic aspects of coping with climate change.  It provides a comparative overview of key issues across  Europe, the United States, Asia-Pacific and the BRICS  countries, and discusses domestic, regional and  international law and governance. With perspectives from  academia, government and private practice, the expert  contributors analyse key sectors such as energy, transport,  buildings, industry, land use and waste. Important issues  such as carbon trading, financing and litigation are also  addressed. The book demonstrates the variety of approaches  taken and their challenges with a view of fostering more  effective and pragmatic ways of managing climate change  mitigation.  This timely book will be an authoritative  resource for scholars of climate change law and policy,  whilst also providing a rigorous overview for upper-level  students. Policymakers will gain insights from the  comparative perspectives, and practitioners will appreciate  the broad range of practical issues addressed.},
