Climate Law is the first Australian book of any substance which brings together a combination of senior and respected environmental law and policy academics and practitioners. The book covers the key areas of Australian climate law: the international framework, the place of greenhouse considerations in the main Commonwealth environmental legislation, greenhouse emissions reductions legislation, nuclear regulation, geosequestration regulation, carbon trading law and practice, climate change adaptation law, and the main Australian climate law cases from the last few years, which primarily involve coal and wind.
