If this year's climate crucial climate change negotiations are successful, this book will be required reading ... Lord Stern, like Al Gore, could be seen as one of the rock stars of global warming. -- Fiona Harvey * Financial Times *
Here is a user's manual for the planet that world leaders have only to follow and - safely, if only just in the nick of time - all our chestnuts will be pulled from the fire... Commendably light on jargon and abundantly clear in his conclusions -- Richard Girling * The Sunday Times *
The Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen... [is] one of the most important international gatherings since the Second World War.
