Resolving the Climate Crisis
"While the book’s title indicates infrastructure as a prominent feature, and its stated goal is to improve governance, the material on interactions among stakeholders in the face of uncertainty is, itself, reason enough to check out this book, because it is highly relatable to many other policy areas involving public participation and choices made in an environment of changeThe look inside of a project where role-play, games, and multiple scenarios were used is quite valuable. As more public entities seek to improve their capacity for decision-making and action, these tools allow for interaction and development of sense-making skill sets, and can pay dividends in improving public sector responses."
