Henrik Selin<\/a>, Associate Professor of International Relations at the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University, was recently interviewed for an article on\u00a0the absence of United States leadership within the the Paris Climate Agreement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Selin was quoted in a December 13, 2017 article in\u00a0El Mercurio<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>entitled “Despite The Absence of the US, the Paris Summit Makes Concrete Commitments Against Climate Change.<\/a>“<\/span><\/p>\n

From the text of the article:<\/p>\n

Anyway, the commitments are still far from the goal, as stated by Macron.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>“The countries must accelerate their efforts to cut the emission of greenhouse gases. The measures that have been raised at the summit are not even remotely sufficient, ” Henrik Selin, an academic at Boston University and expert in environmental governance, told El Mercurio.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>“If the largest emitters do not take action quickly, we will lose the battle against unbridled climate change, which will require significant increases in both public and private investments, and climate finance will be key.”<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Henrik Selin<\/a>\u00a0conducts research and teaches classes on global and regional politics and policy making on environment and sustainable development. His most recent book is\u00a0<\/span>EU and Environmental Governance,<\/a>\u00a0by Routledge Press, and is also the author of\u00a0<\/span>Global Governance of Hazardous Chemicals: Challenges of Multilevel Management<\/em><\/a>\u00a0by MIT Press.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
