Through an enlightening collection of academic articles, Environmental Policy and Management deepens and broadens students' knowledge of the root causes of environmental policy and management, while providing various solutions to mitigate environmental impacts. Students are encouraged to understand the complex nature of environmental issues, today's environmental policy approaches, and technologies that can create a more sustainable future.

Unit I covers the fundamental principles of environmental policy and politics. The readings explore the main features of environmental policy, how it differs from public policy, how policy is formed, the key actors involved in implementing policies, and more. It also covers climate treaties and energy transition, which overlaps with environmental policies. Unit II outlines contemporary environmental issues and approaches, including environmental justice, circular economy, sustainable businesses, urban sustainability, and issues related to energy access in developing countries among others.

The second edition of this book features significant updates to ensure students are equipped with the most current and relevant information. Unit I now includes two new readings, one on the Paris Agreement for global decarbonization and the other on the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewables. Unit II has also been enhanced with new readings on private partnerships for the Global South and the principles and current practices of carbon markets, reflecting the evolving landscape of environmental policy and management.

Filling a gap in the current literature, Environmental Policy and Management is an ideal resource for courses and programs in environmental policy.
