Beschreibung:
Leah Cardamore Stokes is Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of California Santa Barbara. Her research and writing on climate change and energy policy has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, The Guardian, as well as numerous scholarly journals.
Short Circuiting Policy examines climate and energy politics over several decades to understand why US states are not on track to meet the climate crisis. It argues that electric utilities and clean energy companies battle over policy, and their relative power explains why US states have stopped expanding-and even started weakening-their renewable energy policies. The book explains key US clean energy policies, including Renewable Portfolio Standards and net metering, in detail.
