　Climate change has raised awareness globally about vulnerability to extreme weather that threatens lives and property. Appropriate adaptation would require holistic solutions from vital stakeholders, consisting of government, enterprises, technology, and community to build resilience for better governance. This book is the first publication initiative of the Proceeding Series of the East Asia Forum on Climate Change and Disaster Management Law and Policy, which reflects timely trends in climate change response policy and development of legislation in the U.S., Japan, Korea, Malaysia and Taiwan using comparative studies. Ocean risk is also highlighted by the introduction of an effective plastic debris management approach through a partnership between the private and public sectors; there is also an analysis of risk financing. Readers can learn about interdisciplinary approaches to tackle various climate change law and policy issues from the analysis provided by specialists on the frontline.
