The 'Doomsday' Effect in Climate Policies : Why is the Present Decade so Crucial to Tackling the Climate Challenge?
Perrissin Fabert, Baptiste - 2012
Despite growing scientific evidence that passing a 2°C temperature increase may trigger tipping points in climate dynamics, most Integrated Assessment Models (IAM) based on Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) with smooth quadratic damage functions are unable to account for the possibility of strong...
