Bringing together eminent Australian European and Russian experts and practitioners this
volume makes an important contribution to the crucial debates on climate change and energy that
will have a profound impact on all our futures. The problems faced by business scientists
NGOs policymakers and researchers are multifaceted and complex in nature so a comprehensive
treatment of the subject is best undertaken by a diverse and multi-skilled group. The authors
explore different approaches and experiences in securing sustainable energy supplies in Europe
and Australia while heeding the interplay between public policy science business and
environmental groups. On the threshold of an era of carbon taxing and energy thrift the views
of the authors on the future evolution of our relationship with energy are as insightful as
they are thought-provoking.
