If you have a question about this talk, please contact Alexander R Epstein.

We must limit climate change to avoid severe consequences. This talk will address the question “How?”. Of course this is one of humanity’s grand challenges, and a complete answer may be elusive. Nevertheless, thinking clearly about the problem enables us to identify certain properties that a successful solution must have. These include a strong framework of cooperation and pricing of carbon. I’ll discuss the nature of the problem, cooperation, the ethical basis, and the relation to the Paris Agreement. If time permits, I’ll discuss a concrete proposal, which I call the “Equitable Atmosphere Climate Cooperative” (EACC).
