Description |
Discusses the premise of using collective action to address the impacts of climate change in order to achieve sustainable societies and ecosystems. Explores the challenges for scientists, politicians, planners, managers, and citizens to develop and implement new processes and institutions that will inform decisions in a changing climate. Investigates whether institutions must realign to foster collective decision-making in the common interest and for the common good. Examines how climate change effects strain current institutional, legal, regulatory and land management tools, which evolved in a stable climate and with the assumption that climate would remain stable. |
