N2  - A publication on climate governance and federal systems is an important, welcome, and timely contribution to understanding in this policy area of federative governance. This book’s relevance is enormous when one considers the gravity of the challenge that lies ahead and the role that federated systems play in addressing it. After all, a number of the world’s largest emitters are either federations (e.g., the United States, India) or have adopted forms of decentralised governance. A number of other federations, such as Australia and Canada, have very high per capita emissions. Comparative global research helps us understand some of the ways in which federal or decentralised systems help or hinder efforts to mitigate and adapt to climate change. Federal and federal-type systems are distinctive in that their various and varied constituent units provide policymaking opportunities that may not be present in unitary systems. This book explores that dimension of decision-making and policy choices that its fourteen case studies have undertaken in their efforts to address the challenge of climate change. We hope that the experiences and findings presented in this publication will support progress in advancing policy options in this vital area
