-
"Population and Climate Change provides a systematic in-depth treatment of links between two major themes of the 21st century: population growth and associated demographic trends such as aging and climate change." "This book will be of primary interest to researchers in the fields of climate change, demography, and economics. It will also be useful to policymakers and NGOs dealing with issues of population dynamics and climate change, and to teachers and students on courses such as environmental studies, demography, climatology, economics, earth systems science, and international relations."--BOOK JACKET.
