The oil industry and climate change provide the clearest example of how the two are linked; what is less well-known is how the industry is responding to these concerns.This volume, available for the first time in paperback, presents a detailed study of the climate strategies of ExxonMobil, Shell and Statoil. With an innovative analytical approach, the authors explain variations at three decision-making levels: within the companies themselves, in the national home-bases of the companies, and at an international level. The analysis generates policy-relevant knowledge about whether and how corporate resistance to a viable climate policy can be overcome.The analytical approach developed by the authors is also applicable to other areas of environmental degradation where multinational corporations play a central role. The book is invaluable to students, researchers and practitioners interested in national and international environmental politics and business environmental management.This book is relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 13, Climate actionCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Science Nature & MathBook Series: Issues in Environmental PoliticsItem Width: 14mmItem Weight: 367gTopic: Technology & EngineeringRelease Year: 2010 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
