Description - A Climate of Change by Lawrence H. Summers

America is now acutely aware of climate change as never before. Energy security, on the other hand, has been a major American concern at least since the Arab oil embargo of the 1970s, and it too is receiving renewed attention. In fact, oil shocks have played a major role in nine of the ten U.S. recessions since World War II. Given the connection between
greenhouse gases and global warming, the quest for energy security and the need to slow down or mitigate climate change are clearly intertwined, and reducing consumption of fossil fuels is an essential step toward both. A Climate of Change presents a multifaceted strategy for addressing climate change while simultaneously promoting energy security.
