The scenarios in this report show that large-scale deployment of carbon capture and storage technologies for new coal-fired power plants from year 2015 may reduce global CO2 emissions by 8-19% by 2030 and 23-25% by 2100. By 2100 global warming is reduced from 4.9 to 4.4
This paper outlines the criteria that a global mitigation agreement would need to satisfy and explains the importance of cap-and-trade as the keystone of that agreement. It underscores the inescapability of ethics in determining the fair distribution of the costs of mitigation and argues that there is a strong moral …
