Der weltweite Klimaschutz hat im vergangenen Jahr erneut einen Rückschlag erlitten. Nach vorläufi gen Schätzungen stiegen die Emissionen von Kohlendioxid (CO2 ), dem mit weitem Abstand wichtigsten Treibhausgas, im Jahre 2005 gegenüber 2004 weltweit um etwa 2,5 %; gegenüber 1990 betrug der...

This paper concerns optimal emissions of greenhouse gases when catastrophic consequences are possible. A numerical model is presented which takes into account both continuous climate-feedback damages as well as the possibility of a catastrophic outcome. The uncertainty in the model concerns...

Die globale Erwärmung und die daraus resultierenden ökonomischen und sozialen Konsequenzen sind eng verbunden mit dem Ausstoß von Treibhausgasen. Dem Kyoto-Protokoll nach ist die Europäische Union verpflichtet, die Emissionen dieser Gase bis zum Zeitraum 2008/2012 um 8% gegenüber 1990 zu...

Future emissions of trace gases are intrinsically linked to economic growth and abatement policies, which in turn, are governed by expectations of greenhouse damages. Trace gas indices that depend upon future emissions can be calculated either on the basis of emissions scenarios, such as those...
