Can Equity Enhance Efficiency? Lessons from the Kyoto Protocol
This paper analyses the relationship between different equity rules and the incentives to sign and ratify a climate agreement. A widespread conjecture suggests that a more equitable ex-ante distribution of the burden of reducing emissions would provide the right incentives for more countries particularly big emitters to accept an emission reduction scheme defined within an international climate...
متن کاملContribution of Women Scientists to Pharmacology: A Historical Perspective
The article highlights the contributions of a few prominent women scientists to the science of pharmacology. These women,some of whom were from other scientific fields, contributed significantly to our understanding of pharmacology. This was achieved in an era in which pharmacology was a more or less male dominated field. Even though it is easier for women to enter scientific fields nowadays, t...
متن کاملKyoto Protocol and Emission Trading: Does the US make a difference?
SUMMARY This paper presents an estimate of the costs of reducing CO2 emissions as agreed in Kyoto by Annex 1 countries. Unlike most of the existing literature, this paper uses an Almost Ideal Demand System model for energy products to estimate the role of each country within the Annex 1 market. A major result is the provision of marginal (and total) abatement costs for each. The recent position...
متن کاملAcumen The contribution that information can make to development
The relationship between information use and national development is complex. Information use has no intrinsic value. Its value is derived from the contribution that the use of information makes to other activities. To measure the value of information in the context of national development it is therefore necessary to begin by asking what the information will be used for. Here it is possible to...

The summary report of Working Group 1, on science, widened the range of likely temperature increase, compared with the IPCC's Second Assessment Report five years earlier, to 1.4-5.8 degrees centigrade, w...
