Climate-change policy: why has so little been achieved?
While the scientific evidence for climate change grows, the policy responses have so far had little or no impact on the build-up of emissions. Current trends in emissions are adverse. The paper considers why the disconnect between science and policy exists and, in particular, why the Kyoto Protocol has achieved so little. Some contributing factors considered are: the focus on carbon production ...

Emissions of carbon dioxide, the principal greenhouse gas, from energy use in Asian countries now exceed those from the European Union or North America. Three of the top five emitters-China, India, and Japan, are Asian countries. Any meaningful global effort to address glob...
متن کاملIs the Uncertainty about Climate Change Too Large for Expected Cost-benefit Analysis?
Cost-benefit analysis is only applicable if the variances of both costs and benefits are finite. In the case of climate change, the variances of the net present marginal costs and benefits of greenhouse gas emission reduction need to be finite. Finiteness is hard, if not impossible to prove. The opposite is easier to establish as one only needs to show that there is one, not impossible represen...
متن کاملHas acromegaly been diagnosed earlier?
PURPOSE We investigated whether acromegaly has been diagnosed earlier at the Niigata Medical and Dental University Hospital.
