"Global Environmental Politics was the standard when I was in graduate school, and it has since evolved to become the foundational text in the field. Whether you are seeking a 30,000 foot view of environmental politics across the world or need to dive deep into one of the many important environmental issues of our time, Global Environmental Politics is the book worth reaching for."

"Global Environmental Politics is an essential resource for anyone seeking to understand the complex interplay between environmental challenges and global governance. With clarity and insight, the authors unpack the institutions, actors, and processes that shape international environmental cooperation. As someone working at the intersection of youth engagement, sustainability, and global water governance, I find this textbook an invaluable tool for fostering informed, action-oriented dialogue among the next generation of environmental leaders."

"For well over 30 years scholars have turned to Global Environmental Politics to understand the depth and range of environmental issues addressed by sustainable development diplomacy. Compound crises of climate change and biodiversity loss are upon us. The institutions and mechanisms we have used to cooperate are threatened by the benign neglect of friends, outright attack of populist enemies and the complexity of issues and actors. This 9th edition is, therefore, an essential volume for every student interested in how we can live within planetary boundaries in societies and economies that work for everyone."
