Rich Rosen Tellus Institute Boston
Am 7.8.2014 trägt Rich Rosen vom Tellus Institute in Boston sein aktuelles Papier mit Edeltraud Guenther (TU Dresden) zum Thema "The economics of mitigating climate change: What can we know?"

Seine These: "policymakers should not base climate change mitigation policy on the estimated net economic impacts computed by integrated assessment models. Rather, mitigation policies must be forcefully implemented anyway given the actual physical climate change crisis, in spite of the many uncertainties involved in trying to predict the net economics of doing so."
