Global Environmental Governance, Civil Society and Wildlife : Birdsong After the Storm Paperback / softback
by Margi Prideaux
Part of the Transforming Environmental Politics and Policy series
Paperback / softback
Description
The world is entering a period of unprecedented environmental and political change.
By mid-century, climate change will cause dramatic ecosystem shifts.
Hundreds, if not thousands, of species will disappear from the earth including icons like polar bears, gorillas, Asiatic lions and bluefin tuna.
For many cultures ’species’ are ’place’. As our cultivated global community erodes, international triage decisions about species and local ecosystems will commence and if we are not alert, these decisions will be made on our collective behalf, without local perspective or accountability.
Global Environmental Governance, Civil Society and Wildlife illuminates a clear pathway for the environmental, non-governmental community to transition into a co-governance role.
Many NGO diplomats have deeper experience and more technical knowledge about policy discussions than their government counterparts and are unburdened by sovereign constraints.
The book puts forward the perspectives of developing world civil society and the case that it must play a more significant role in future decision making.
Civil society from around the world must be welcomed by governments at the global environmental governance table if we are to hear birdsong after the storm.
