About the product

Carbon dioxide is the most abundant of the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Through in-depth studies, this publication shows that tradeable permits are both an efficient means of controlling carbon dioxide emissions at minimum cost and an effective mechanism for transferring resources to developing countries and countries in transition. The findings and conclusions presented help to contribute to the international effort to abate emissions of greenhouse gases.
