"Ans Kolk and Jonatan Pinkse are the world's leading thinkers on the interface between international business and global climate change. This well-written book will greatly benefit any scholar or manager looking for state-of-the-art knowledge on corporate responses to the defining environmental challenge of our generation."
Professor Alain Verbeke, Haskayne School of Business, University of Calgary
"This timely and comprehensive book is an excellent contribution to contemporary management studies. It is highly relevant to managers, scholars and students in strategic management and global governance, two fields in which globalisation is leading to such intense innovation that the basics of our current frameworks are being seriously tested.
This publication is a "must-read" also for policy-makers and civil society leaders who want a better understanding of regulatory, co-regulatory and self-regulatory policy instruments and processes that address the key challenges of climate change."
Professor Gilbert Lenssen, President of the European Academy of Business in Society
"Climate change is the single most important strategic issue facing business in the next fifty years. This book provides a comprehensive examination of the strategic options facing businesses as they struggle to cope with the sweeping competitive and regulatory challenges that climate change presents to various sectors. The authors draw from their rich scholarly knowledge of business and climate change to craft a very accessible and relevant portrayal of key aspects of emissions management, carbon trading, and innovation strategies."
Professor David Levy, University of Massachusetts, Boston
