Description and Table of Contents
Description
This volume contains essays by the Prince of Wales, Crispin Tickell, Jonathon Porritt and others on the new range of threats to international peace and security resulting from environmental destruction. Issues discussed include refugees, climatic change and the water crisis. In the first section of the text, the essays examine the concept of environmental security. Then, two crucial areas are explored: climatic change and biodiversity. The third section describes the legal consequences of these new forms of potential conflict, and the volume concludes by looking at the implications for contemporary military forces and for politicians.
