Cooperation on Climate-Change Mitigation [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2016
Abstract We analyze conditions under which it is possible to achieve efficient mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions with a self-enforcing international agreement in which all countries find it in their self-interest to abide by the agreement. We model the choice of emissions by countries as a dynamic game.
