About this product

Product Information

Sharing for Survival recognises that official climate policy is dominated by states in thrall to fossil fuel and financial lobbies. It offers a realistic radical way to rapidly reduce emissions through stabilising the economy and ensuring social justice. Its authors explore climate policy in a way that ensures social justice and equity matter, and...* Recognise that the UNFCCC process is going nowhere; * Explore the impact of fossil fuel depletion on the climate crisis; * Take for granted that we are entering a period of economic and social upheaval; * Challenge the idea that the climate crisis can be resolved in a growth economy; * Propose no-nonsense approaches to controlling fossil fuel emissions that are upstream; * Look at the packages of measures that are necessary without the loopholes and slippage that render so many policies futile; * Explain how climate governance would be best developed through civil society organisations working together globally - with states then legitimising what they develop; * Explore different ideas as to where the carbon revenue should go - to the people or communities; * Explain why supporting indigenous people, rather than trading in carbon, is the best strategy for reducing deforestation emissions; * Look at climate policy from the point of view of the countries of the south (particularly India and Africa) in addition to the viewpoint of 'developed' countries.
