Leading scholars assess the transformations in energy security policy that flow from recognition of global climate change. They explore through case studies the key policy responses formulated in the Asia-Pacific and identify potential synergies between energy policy and climate mitigation efforts.

This book examines how the concept of energy security should be transformed in the light of scientific evidence that combustion of fossil fuels contributes to dangerous climatic change
