Adapting to the Impacts of Climate Change (America's Climate Choices)
Adaptation requires actions from many decision makers in federal, state, tribal, and local governments; the private sector; non-governmental organizations; and community groups. However, current efforts are hampered by a lack of solid information about the benefits, costs, and effectiveness of various adaptation options; climate information on regional and local scales; and a lack of coordination. Adapting to the Impacts of Climate Change calls for a national adaptation strategy that provides needed technical and scientific resources, incentives to begin adaptation planning, guidance across jurisdictions, shared lessons learned, and support of scientific research to expand knowledge of impacts and adaptation.
Climate Capitalism Global Warming and the Transformation of the Global Economy
Confronting climate change is now understood as a problem of 'decarbonising' the global economy: ending our dependence on carbon-based fossil fuels. This book explores whether such a transformation is underway, how it might be accelerated, and the complex politics of this process. Given the dominance of global capitalism and free-market ideologies, decarbonisation is dependent on creating carbon markets and engaging powerful actors in the world of business and finance.
Climate Capitalism assesses the huge political dilemmas this poses, and the need to challenge the entrenched power of many corporations, the culture of energy use, and global inequalities in energy consumption. Climate Capitalism is essential reading for anyone wanting to better understand the challenge we face. It will also inform a range of student courses in environmental studies, development studies, international relations, and business programmes.

Global Warming and the American Economy: A Regional Assessment of Climate Change Impacts
The impact of climate change on seven regions of the United States is studied in this new collection. The basic hypothesis of the study is that warming would be beneficial to the economies of the colder northern regions but harmful to the economies of the warmer more southern regions. This is confirmed in a careful set of sectoral studies applied to each region. Because of its importance, two methods are used to study agriculture. Agriculture is analyzed using both an agronomic-economic simulation model and a cross-sectional Ricardian analysis. The two capital-intensive sectors affected by climate are analyzed with explicit dynamic models. A dynamic ecological-economic model is applied to forestry and a dynamic sea-level rise model is applied to study coastal impacts. A hydrologic-economic simulation model of selected watersheds is used for water and a cross-sectional empirical approach is used for energy. In each case, a national model is estimated and results are desegregated to the regional level. Because the study focuses on including efficient adaptation responses, the special role of adaptation is discussed in detail. The book concludes with a discussion of the impacts across the country and in each region. Any reader interested in climate change and its impacts should find this book of detailed results enlightening. The book is especially useful for people interested in studying impact methodologies.

Weed Biology and Climate Change
Weeds have posed significant problems for civilization since the inception of agriculture. Although rising levels of carbon dioxide and climate disruptions can affect fundamental aspects of global biology, little is known regarding weed science. Weed Biology and Climate Change provides a unique and timely synthesis of research on current and potential biological climate-induced changes with a specific focus on the impacts and management of weedy and invasive plants.
Weed Biology and Climate Change opens with separate overviews of both weed biology and climate change. Subsequent chapters look at the impacts of climatic change on basic and applied aspects of weed biology. Chapters cover key topics ranging from climate-related impacts on weed growth and reproduction to weed management, invasive species, ecosystem functioning, and food security and how these practices will need to adapt in the face of a changing climate.
Written by two experts in the field, Weed Biology and Climate Change is the first book to provide a thorough analysis of climatic change impacts specific to weed science. This book will be an essential resource for weed scientists, global change biologists, ecologists, and crop scientists in the classroom and the field.
Key features:
Timely synthesis of climate change research and its impacts in regard to basic and applied aspects of weed biology
Chapters look at such applied issues as weed management, ecosystem maintenance, and food security
Provides summary of current status and looks at future implications of increased atmospheric carbon dioxide on weedy and invasive plants
"Dr. Ziska is among the world's leading scientists regarding research on invasive weeds and climate change.
Logistics Management and Strategy - Competing Through the Supply Chain
Logistics and supply chain management continue to transform the competitive landscape and have become one of today
Climate Change Impacts on Freshwater Ecosystems
The book is also concerned with how aspects of hydrophysical, hydrochemical and ecological change can be used as early indicators of climate change in aquatic ecosystems and it addresses the implications of future climate change for freshwater ecosystem management at the catchment scale. The book is aimed at the scientific research community, but is also accessible to Masters and senior undergraduate students. "Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students and above." (Choice, 1 August 2011) "Whether you agree with the interpretation or not, this is a fun approach to science that makes the book all the more enjoyable." (Frontiers of Biogeography, 1 June 2011)

Economics and the Challenge of Global Warming
"The economics of climate change is as complex as it is vital. To understand it, you can read dozens of journal articles and try to make sense of it on your own - or you can read Charles Pearson's brilliant synthesis and interpretation. I strongly recommend that you start with this wonderful new book." - Scott Barrett, Columbia University
"Charles Pearson's work always sheds light, rather than heat, on complex policy questions. This book is no exception. With his clear and winsome nontechnical approach, Pearson unravels the latest economic research on climate change. Within the context of scientific research and political feasibility, he shows how economics contributes to the development of effective, efficient, and internationally equitable responses to this difficult environmental problem." - Judith M. Dean, Brandeis University
"Pearson's book gives a thorough treatment of all central topics related to climate policy. It is up-to-date with references to recent research and it is written in a style that is also accessible to non-economists." - Michael Hoel, University of Oslo
"Climate change is arguably the biggest economic and political challenge of the 21st century. This book provides an excellent survey of the economic literature on global warming with a special emphasis on the contributions of cost-benefit analysis. The author also shows the reasons why political efforts to mitigate global warming have had little success so far. This stimulating, well-written book on a topical issue, by a recognized expert in the field, should attract a wide readership beyond the narrow group of economic specialists." - Werner E. Neudeck, Vienna School of International Studies
"Just as rapid internationalization of the world's economies made closed-economy approaches to macroeconomic policy obsolete, the economics of climate change are transforming the way we think about applied microeconomic policy. Economics and the Challenge of Global Warming offers an insightful, articulate, rigorous, and comprehensive review of the topic, written in an intuitive and easy-to-follow manner by a crack professor with extensive experience. I would highly recommend it." - Michael G. Plummer, Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development , Paris
"Charles Pearson is a widely respected and senior figure in the international relations field and he has produced an authoritative and up-to-date volume of great relevance to debate on one of today's leading global issues: climate change. He focuses on the role of economics, including cost-benefit analysis and the cost effectiveness of different strategies and policies. His book will be welcomed and widely read." - John Whalley, University of Western Ontario

The Green Paradox: A Supply-Side Approach to Global Warming
A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming
Handbook of Research on Global Information Technology Management in the Digital Economy
Global Information Technology Management in the Digital Economy provides comprehensive coverage and definitions of the most important issues, concepts, trends and technologies in the field of the emerging sub-discipline of global information technology management, covering topics such as the technical platform for global IS applications, information systems projects spanning cultures, managing information technology in multi-domestic/international/global/transnational corporations, and global information technology systems and socioeconomic development in developing countries.
Michael D. Mastrandrea, Stephen H. Schneider,
Global momentum is building to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. So far, so good. The less happy news is that Earth's temperatures will continue to rise for decades. And evidence shows that climbing temperatures are already having serious consequences for vulnerable people and regions through droughts, extreme weather, and melting glaciers. In this book, climate experts Michael Mastrandrea and Stephen Schneider argue that we need to start adapting to climate change, now. They write that these efforts should focus primarily on identifying the places and people most at risk and taking anticipatory action--from developing drought-resistant crops to building sea walls. The authors roundly reject the idea that reactive, unplanned adaptation will solve our problems--that species will migrate northward as climates warm, and farmers will shift to new crops and more hospitable locations. And they are highly critical of "geoengineering" schemes that are designed to cool the planet by such methods as injecting iron into oceans or exploding volcanoes. Mastrandrea and Schneider insist that smart adaptation will require a series of local and regional projects, many of them in the countries least able to pay for them and least responsible for the problem itself. Ensuring that we address the needs of these countries, while we work globally to reduce emissions over the long term, is our best chance to avert global disaster and to reduce the terrible, unfair burdens that are likely to accompany global warming.
