Preventing risks of severe damage from climate change not only requires deep cuts in developed country greenhouse gas emissions, but enormous amounts of public and private investment to limit emissions while promoting green growth in developing countries. While attention has focused on emissions limitations commitments and architectures, the crucial issue of what must be done to mobilize and govern the necessary financial resources has received too little consideration. In Climate Finance, a leading group of policy experts and scholars shows how effective mitigation of climate change will depend on a complex mix of public funds, private investment through carbon markets, and structured incentives that leave room for developing country innovations. This requires sophisticated national and global regulation of cap-and-trade and offset markets, forest and energy policy, international development funding, international trade law, and coordinated tax policy. Thirty-six targeted policy essays present a succinct overview of the emerging field of climate finance, defining the issues, setting the stakes, and making new and comprehensive proposals for financial, regulatory, and governance mechanisms that will enrich political and policy debate for many years to come. The complex challenges of climate finance will continue to demand fresh insights and creative approaches. The ideas in this volume mark out starting points for essential institutional and policy innovations.

Climate Finance is an extraordinary book. It sheds light on issues that will be with us in the years to come. It analyzes complex subjects and explains in coherent and convincing words what needs to be done and how. The book is a genuine treasure chest I would hope that everybody who has a stake in climate issues will read it. -- Georg Kell,Executive Director, United Nations Global Compact Climate Finance provides a remarkably up-to-date and comprehensive analysis of strategies for financing measures to limit greenhouse gas emissions. The concise and diverse contributions will help to inform both general public debate and negotiations at Copenhagen and beyond. -- Robert O. Keohane,author of Power and Governance in a Partially Globalized World
