Are you looking for an approach that recognizes the costs of climate change, and approaches the entire question with an economic and political sanity? Matthew E. Kahn's new book Adapting to Climate Change is then essential reading. -Tyler Cowen, George Mason University The COVID-19 crisis dramatically changed the way the world lives and works; but climate change poses an even greater challenge. Matt Kahn argues the best way to meet that challenge lies less in top-down government programs and more in using policy to nudge corporations and millions of people to make better individual decisions. A must read for everyone concerned with humanity's future. -Richard Florida, author of The Rise of the Creative Class A balanced, eye-opening analysis of how individual choices and markets can lead to better outcomes in our struggle to arrest climate change. This book will give you a measure of optimism about our ability to survive without paying a high price in standards of living. -Mauro Guillen, author of the bestselling 2030: How Today's Biggest Trends Will Collide and Reshape the Future of Everything
