Climate Obstruction - A Global Assessment

This volume assembles nearly one hundred top experts to systematically address the complex, organized, and well-funded set of actors who have actively resisted and undermined policy efforts to address climate change. Contributors examine obstruction efforts undertaken across regions and industries; assess the role of the media in disseminating climate disinformation and misinformation; and discuss legal, state, and non-state efforts to address climate obstruction. Providing a first-of-its-kind assessment of global climate obstruction, this volume advances our understanding of efforts to slow or block policies on climate change to guide more effective action to prevent obstruction in the future.
