      abstract = {This compelling study on climate change governance is a  must-read for academics, policy makers and the general  public. The book offers original new research from a broad  range of case studies in both the US and France. Barichella  convincingly demonstrates that multilevel governance  matters and is critical if we are to keep global  temperatures below the 2C Paris Agreement threshold by the  end of the century. Dr. Patrick Schembri, University  Paris-Saclay, France This book examines the potential for  cities, states and regions to take decisive action on  climate change at the local level. Local action constitutes  an essential component of global efforts to keep  temperatures below the 2C Paris Agreement threshold.  Focusing on three green municipal leaders - New York,  Boston and Paris - this volume examines their multilevel  interactions with higher governance echelons in the United  States and France. Even though these countries are located  on different continents, similar patterns emerge on both  sides of the Atlantic. This book explores the key role of  municipalities and sub-state entities in shaping the  climate policy agenda vis--vis national governments in the  US and France. It argues that inadequate articulation of  multilevel governance may jeopardize efforts to limit  global temperature increase below the 2C threshold by the  end of the century. Arnault Barichella is a post-doctoral  researcher with the Institute for Sustainable Energy at the  Universit Paris-Saclay, where he works on local climate  policies and hybrid hydrogen engines. He received his PhD  in Political Science from Sciences Po Paris, with a thesis  comparing multilevel climate governance in the US and  France; he is an affiliated researcher at Sciences Pos  Center for European Studies. Arnault obtained his Masters  degree from Sciences Po Paris, his BA degree from Oxford  University, and was awarded a visiting fellowship at  Harvard University.},
