Impact of Climate Change:
Addressing
Climate Outside the "Climate Regime"
What
are the possibilities for NGOs, corporations and other institutions
of civil society for addressing climate change in the absence of
national governmental leadership and official diplomacy on a global
"climate regime?"

leadership of the nation-state fails and international diplomacy
reaches a stalemate, what else can be and is being accomplished?

"Addressing
global climate change will require a sustained effort, over many
generations. My approach recognizes that sustained economic growth
is the solution, not the problem – because a nation that grows
its economy is a nation that can afford investments in efficiency,
new technologies, and a cleaner environment."
