520    Climate Change: Alternate Governance Policy for South Asia
       provides an assessment of climate change issues through 
       the socioeconomic lens of one of the world's poorest, most
       populous regions. Although climate change is a global 
       issue, localized solutions have become increasingly 
       necessary to address political, economic and cultural 
       factors in underdeveloped regions. Identifying successes, 
       gaps and shortcomings in existing policies and regional 
       laws relating to climate change, this book evaluates the 
       sustainability of current practices, examining mitigation 
       strategies and suggesting a comprehensive, innovative 
       model of sustainable policies and governance strategy 
       specific to the region. While the book approaches climate 
       change, policy and mitigation from a regionally-focused 
       standpoint, it has an underlying philosophy of Think 
       Global, Act Local, making it universally applicable to 
       anyone interested in climate change and its effects.
