  Book on global warming and U.S. law

  For anyone who is interested, the American Bar Association has just published "Global Climate Change and U.S. Law," a 784-page multi-author book edited by Michael B. Gerrard.  The book sells for $59.95 (minus a discount for ABA members).  It will be updated by a web site.

  After a summary of the factual and scientific background, the book begins by addressing the international and national frameworks of climate change law, including clean air regulation, civil remedies and the impact of the Kyoto Protocol on many domestic actions.  The book then describes emerging regional, state and local actions, and includes a 50-state survey.  Next is coverage of issues of concern to corporations, including disclosure, fiduciary duties, insurance, and subsidies.  The book ends with an examination of the legal aspects of various efforts to reduce emissions, including voluntary programs, emissions trading programs and carbon sequestration.
