Abstract

Aims to encourage UK policymakers to consider the international impacts of climate change alongside domestic impacts. Looks at how international climate change is likely to affect the UK through its global dependencies and networks and concludes that the impacts of climate change overseas could be as important as the direct impacts within UK shores over the next few decades.
