Clearing the Air: European Advances in Tackling Acid Rain and Atmospheric Pollution: Routledge Revivals

Autor Jørgen Wettestad
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 oct 2019
This title was first published in 2002: The adoption of the 1999 Gothenburg Protocol within the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution (CLRTAP) and the 2001 EU National Emission Ceilings (NEC) directive has made for much stronger European air pollution policies. This volume offers the first in-depth analysis available of this key development. Central questions discussed include: -What role did the three new Green member states joining the EU in 1995 play in this development? -Will these significantly stronger policies only be followed by weaker implementation? -Why are the EU emission ceilings more ambitious than those of CLRTAP? -Do these more ambitious EU NEC emission ceilings and wider trends such as EU enlargement signal that CLRTAP is fading away as a central forum for European policy development? Decision makers, negotiators and international and non-governmental organizations will benefit from this book as it discusses important institutional issues. Students and academics will also find it extremely useful.

Recenzii

’This is a highly interesting first analysis of recent developments in the two main European air pollution fora - the CLRTAP and EU. Should be very useful for policy-makers, scientists, industrialists, environmentalists and journalists in Europe and beyond.’ Christer Ã…gren, Head of the NGO Secretariat on Acid Rain ’This book gives an excellent and groundbreaking analysis of recent successful CLRTAP policy-making in Europe which provides important examples for other regions of the world and other issue areas.’ Lars Nordberg, Secretary of the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution (CLRTAP) 1991-2000 ’Wettestad provides a truly insightful analysis of the forces that allow for the strengthening of international environmental policies. Both scholars and practitioners will benefit from the careful analysis of how policy-makers in the European Union and the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution were able to improve environmental policy even as pollution control costs grew and environmental concern waned. The use of both static and dynamic comparisons should serve as a model for those interested in analyzing international environmental policy.’ Dr. Ronald B. Mitchell, Associate Professor, Political Science, University of Oregon, USA A must-read resource on 'Global Environmental Politics' in the Oxford Bibliographies Online International Relations module.
