“…Many different authors have considered the distribution of climate change impacts and issues related to the problem of how to craft domestic policies and international agreements concerning climate change mitigation which are sufficiently acceptable in terms of their distributional consequences. Some examples include Azar and Sterner (1996), Stephan and Muller-Furstenberger (2004), Reibstein (2005), Thomas and Twyman (2005), Lange (2006), Mendelsohn et al (2006), Parks and Roberts (2006), Raymond (2006), and Anthoff et al (2009).…”

The book argues that solutions to the problem of climate change are best founded on ethical and equitable grounds, which lead to more practical, effective solutions than the present utilitarian, market-driven strategy (see insightful book review by Reibstein 2005) International events and agreements The Rio Declaration and UNFCCC have first and foremost been instrumental in establishing norms about responsibility for climate change, including that 'nations have the responsibility to reduce greenhouse gas emissions of activities within their jurisdictions' and that 'developed nations have the responsibility to take the lead in reducing the threat of climate change' (Brown et al 2006, p. 14). Nevertheless, there has been a significant lag and even unwillingness of parties to take responsibility or meaningful action, which is why much further action and commitment is needed.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations鈥揷itations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
