Michael B. Gerrard & Jody Freeman 
Global Climate Change and U.S. Law, Third Edition [EPUB ebook] 

The legal landscape around climate change is complex, unstable, and expanding. Scientists continue to publish new findings, policy makers regularly adopt new regulations, and petitioners file new litigation, nationwide and around the world. Hence the need for this third edition. Most of it is completely new, and the few chapters carried over from the second edition have been thoroughly updated.
