Call for Papers for an Edited Book Publisher: Satyam Law International(Submit before 15 November)

The climate emergency clubbed with the crises in the trade world is presenting difficult challenges for the upcoming future. We stand at a juncture where the choices ahead are not easy. This book project seeks to explore the legal questions around the trade and environmental challenges. It seeks to answer the question – Are we doing enough? If not, what kind of solutions could pave a better trajectory ahead How should policymakers address the climate change questions? Is it justified to include environmental issues within the domain of international trade? What about global emissions? How to sufficiently address the historical emissions by the developed countries? How should the principles of common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities be implemented in the trade world? How to make a fair transition to a green world, keeping the needs of developing countries in mind?

  4. Developing economies and environmental protection: Better policy models for adequately addressing climate concerns
