Authored by leading experts in the field, each book in the Routledge Studies in Environmental Policy aims to shed light on the most pressing environmental challenges and explore innovative solutions to address them. The series provides valuable insights and practical recommendations for policymakers, environmental professionals, researchers, and students interested in shaping environmental policies that are both effective and sustainable.

Addressing Climate Change

One of the most significant challenges faced by policymakers is tackling climate change, which poses threats to human health, biodiversity, and economic stability. Routledge Studies in Environmental Policy delves into this critical issue by examining the effectiveness of different policy approaches, exploring the potential of renewable energy sources, assessing the impact of climate-related disasters, and discussing the role of international agreements in mitigating global warming.

Biodiversity Conservation and Ecosystem Management

Preserving biodiversity and managing ecosystems are essential tasks in achieving environmental sustainability. The series explores various strategies for conserving biodiversity, such as protected area management, habitat restoration, and sustainable use of natural resources. It also examines the ecological and socio-economic benefits of maintaining healthy ecosystems and the challenges faced in balancing conservation with development.

Transitioning to Renewable Energy

In the face of energy scarcity and environmental concerns, transitioning to renewable energy sources has become a key priority for many countries. Routledge Studies in Environmental Policy delves into the policy frameworks, technological advancements, and financial mechanisms that can facilitate the transition to a low-carbon economy. It also analyzes the challenges faced in integrating renewable energy into existing energy systems and explores the social and economic dimensions of such a transition.

Environmental Governance and Policy Implementation

Effective environmental governance and policy implementation are crucial for achieving environmental goals. The series critically examines the role of governments, non-governmental organizations, and international institutions in shaping environmental policies and fostering collaboration across sectors. It also explores the barriers to policy implementation and suggests innovative approaches to overcome them.

The Challenges And Opportunities Routledge Studies In Environmental Policy series serves as a vital resource for academics, policymakers, and practitioners seeking to navigate the complex terrain of environmental policy. By highlighting the latest research and showcasing innovative approaches, the series empowers stakeholders to take informed actions in addressing pressing environmental challenges and seizing opportunities for a more sustainable future.

Contributing to the emerging literature on the geopolitical and foreign policy implications of decarbonisation and energy transition processes, this book sheds light on the future of the European Union’s (EU) external relations under decarbonisation.

Under the Paris Agreement on climate change, adopted in 2015, governments are committed to phasing out the emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases over the coming decades. This book addresses the many questions around this process of decarbonisation through detailed analyses of EU external relations with six fossil-fuel exporting countries: Nigeria, Indonesia, Azerbaijan, Colombia, Qatar, and Canada. The authors systematically examine the six countries’ varying dependence on fossil fuels, the broader political and security context, current relations with the EU, and the potential for developing these towards decarbonisation. In doing so, they put forward a series of findings that should hold across varying circumstances and provide a steppingstone to enrich and inspire further research on foreign policy, external relations, and international relations under decarbonisation. The book also makes an important contribution to understanding the external implications of the 2019 European Green Deal.

This volume will be of great interest to students and scholars of European environmental and climate policy, climate diplomacy, energy policy, foreign policy, and climate/energy geopolitics.
