The Acid Rain Debate: Scientific, Economic, And Political Dimensions de Ernest J Yanarella

The Acid Rain Debate: Scientific, Economic, And Political Dimensions

Autor Ernest J Yanarella, Randal H. Ihara
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 2021
This collection of essays by noted academicians, lawyers, energy agency administrators, and research analysts focuses on the political and legal aspects of the acid rain debate, the policy options for resolving the controversy, and the international dimensions of acid rain control. The contributors highlight concerns drawn primarily from the developing study of acid rain in political science, economics, public administration, and policy analysis--concerns that are the focal point of the public debate over the nature, impact, and cost of acid rain and the mitigation of its effects. The book complements the impressive body of research from the natural sciences and responds to the need for applied study to help resolve the current policy stalemate on this critical environmental issue.
    The Acid Rain Debate
features a comprehensive annotated bibliography on acid rain and relevant social science research.
