Karatayev, V.A., Vasconcelos, V.V., Lafuite, AS. et al. A well-timed shift from local to global agreements accelerates climate change mitigation. Nat Commun
Objective:
- Develop a stochastic system
Case:
- Theoretical case
Methodology:
- Simulation
Data Source
Findings:
- Premature global-scale efforts fail to accelarate cooperation on climate; local legally binding aggreements can capitalize on stochastically induced, mitigator dominance within a group to establish mitigation as the local norm
- The poorest countries face dramatic economic loss
