| Summary |
"Environmental finance experts Sonia Labatt and Rodney White understand the difficulties facing companies that need to manage their greenhouse gas emissions and are well aware of the challenges that equity and debt analysts monitoring climate liabilities must overcome. That's why they've created Carbon Finance, a comprehensive guide that explores the financial implications of living in a carbon-constrained world - a world in which emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases can sometimes carry a hefty price."--BOOK JACKET |
