Pleidooi voor een drastische heroriëntatie in het denken omtrent de manier waarop de mens de afgelopen tijd met zijn milieu is omgesprongen.

The Kyoto Protocol became law in February 2005—eight years after its conception as a framework for reducing emissions and a full four years after the United States abandoned it. But while President George W. Bush embarrassed much of the scientific community by challenging the veracity of the greenhouse effect, and thus the impetus for Kyoto, officials elsewhere expressed far different concerns. _Reading the Kyoto Protocol_ explores their qualms and objections to everything from Kyoto's controversial policies on emissions trading to the (...) question of a "post-Kyoto era." Contributors include internationally known philosophers, researchers, and environmentalists. (shrink)
