1. Climate science at the interface with law- and policy-making; 2. The international climate change negotiations: nothing more than sounding brass or tinkling cymbals?; 3. Towards a vision for climate justice in a post-2015 world; 4. Preventing climate disasters: integrating adaptation and disaster risk reduction; 5. Response, recovery and rebuilding; 6. Compensating the victims of climate disasters; 7. Towards an inclusive and impartial practical reasoning process on climate justice and disaster law in a post-2015 world.
Comprehensively analyses the complexities of climate science and their interfaces with the law- and policy-making processes, and provides an in-depth analysis of multilateral climate change negotiations dating from the establishment of the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) to the Twentieth Conference of the Parties in Lima (COP 20) in December 2014.
