| Abstract: |
| The debate on climate change focuses on global carbon flows and on broad-brush
generalisations about how societies may adapt to predicted future conditions. However,
the actual decisions on how and where to sequester carbon and how to adapt to very
uncertain futures will need to take place at more local levels. Although global and national
policies will provide the context, the actual outcomes will be determined by the decisions
of millions of stakeholders all seeking to improve their own condition. Somehow these
individual decisions must build a ‘whole’ that is greater than the sum of their parts. This
book argues persuasively that a realistic ‘whole’ is the climate-smart landscape |
