Description: Protecting the Ozone Layer : Science and Strategy, Hardcover by Parson, Edward, ISBN 0195155491, ISBN-13 9780195155495, Like New Used, Free P&P in the UK Parson (public policy, Harvard U.) argues that protecting the stratospheric ozone layer is an exception to the overall ineffectiveness of efforts to manage global environmental risks. He challenges the conventional story about how the protection was achieved, and points to lessons that can be applied to other environmental issues. The features of many threats are similar, he says: uncertainty, scale, and slow dynamics, and the success in reducing the worldwide use of ozone-depleting chemicals by 95% can be replicated elsewhere.
