Climate change is happening and the potential long-term costs are incalculable. But how do we manage the short-term costs of mitigation? How do we undertake a low-emissions transition that won't undermine the public support that it relies upon? This book makes the case for a careful revolution and provides the tools to prepare New Zealanders for change. Contributors include: Maria Bargh, Dave Frame, Anne Gibbon, Sam Huggard, Kya Lal, Judy Lawrence, Richard Kaipo Lum, Sylvia Nissen, Amelia Sharman and Matt Whineray.
