The Collapse of the Kyoto Protocol and the Struggle to Slow Global Warming

The book examines the unraveling international response to global warming, particularly highlighting the U.S. withdrawal from the Kyoto Protocol and challenges faced by other nations in meeting their commitments. David Victor argues that the protocol was unlikely to be effective and discusses how its failure presents opportunities to develop a more viable alternative for addressing climate change. The reissued paperback includes an afterword reflecting on recent developments in the global climate policy landscape.
