The means, methods and efficiency of America's efforts to control air pollution have been the subject of considerable public debate in recent years. This book explains the timing and shape of these efforts and explores the possibility of change. Chapters of the book discuss the costs and benefits of air pollution control in the United States, develop a conceptual framework to understand legislative production, present aggregate data on congressional activity and detail the development of five distinct policy phases.

<p>The United States is often perceived as sceptical, if not hostile, to the need to address man-made climate change. US government policy has undoubtedly disappointed environmentalists and scientists who believe more concerted action is needed, but a careful examination of the evidence reveals a number of policy actions designed to investigate, mitigate, and adapt to climate change have been implemented. Laws, regulatory action, and court rulings have led to advances in climate science, action to reduce levels of greenhouse gas emissions and efforts to prepare for the potential consequences of climate change. In this important book Chris Bailey explains and details the challenges and achievements of US climate change policy from its origins to the present day.</p>
