  The idea is now widespread that damaging, man-made climate change is occurring. Massive counter-action by governments is the remedy usually prescribed. But there is considerable uncertainty surrounding climate change forecasts and there are dangers in 'big government' approaches to the apparent problem. This book explores the processes by which conclusions about climate change are reached and discusses market-based approaches to dealing with global environmental issues.
