Henrik Jepsen (Editor), Magnus Lundgren (Editor), Kai Monheim (Editor), Hayley Walker (Editor)
"The Paris Agreement was adopted under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in December 2015.

United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon has described the Agreement as a "peace pact with the planet" and U.S. President Barack Obama labeled it a "turning point" in the fight against climate change. At the very least, it represents - in the word of one contributor to this book - "a substantial improvement in global climate governance""-- Provided by publisher
