Citations in the corpus

• Global carbon inequality (2017, background): “One variant of the equity-focused approach is the contraction and convergence argument which allocates emissions based on equal rights to pollute or utilize these commons for every individual (Baer et al. 2000).”
• Ecosystem services: Foundations, opportunities, and challenges for the forest products sector (2009, background): “For example, harvest and restoration activities on a forest impact (positively or negatively) a larger watershed (wildlife habitat, public water supplies, etc.) as well as the atmospheric commons (via carbon emissions and sequestration, see Nordhaus, 1982; Baer et al., 2000; Burger et al., 2001).”
• Tracing anthropogenic carbon dioxide and methane emissions to fossil fuel and cement producers, 1854–2010 (2013, background): “One of the proposals that account for historic emissions is the Brazilian Proposal, analyzed by the UNFCCC Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technical Advice (SBSTA) in the run-up to Kyoto, which suggested that the burden of addressing climate change should be apportioned on the basis of the temper”
• Fair adaptation to climate change (2006, background): “The principles of avoiding dangerous climate change and forward-looking responsibility address responsibility for climate change impacts (see also Baer et al., 2000).”
• The climate responsibilities of industrial carbon producers (2015, background): “Noting that nations with similar total emissions (e.g., USA and China) may have very different per capita emissions (Baer et al. 2000), some commentators have proposed the concept of equal per capita allocation over time, with convergence toward a common per capita emission rate (Höhne et al. 2006).”
• A Polycentric Approach for Coping with Climate Change (2009, background): “This is related to who should bear the primary burden of paying for solutions (Najam et al., 2003; Baer et al., 2000; Posner and Sunstein, 2008).”
