Climate Treaties and the Imperative of Enforcement (2008, background): “However, should ‘enough’ countries switch to B, and should network effects be very strong, it may pay all the remaining countries to switch to B, despite free-rider incentives (Barrett, 2006).”
Environmental and climate innovation: Limitations, policies and prices (2013, background): “Barrett (2006) argues in favour of both, and concludes that a climate technology treaty for coordinated environmental/climate R&D is needed only when one deals with breakthrough technologies that exhibit increasing returns to scale.”
Participation and Duration of Environmental Agreements (2012, background): “…sum of the members’ payoffs.8 The 6 While relatively few papers focus on the holdup problem, several permit both technological investments and emissions ðvan der Ploeg and de Zeeuw 1992; Dutta and Radner 2004Þ. Barrett ð2006Þ and Hoel and de Zeeuw ð2010Þ even include a coalition formation stage.”
Endogenous technology and tradable emission quotas (2008, unknown): “There is a small but rapidly growing literature discussing how international climate agreements might include R&D policies, see e.g. Barrett (2006), Carraro and Marchiori (2003) and Buchner and Carraro (2005).”
Will technology advances alleviate climate change? Dual effects of technology change on aggregate carbon dioxide emissions (2017, background): “…of an economic development pattern, adjustment of an energy structure, and the upgrading of an industrial structure, thus effectively reducing CO2 emissions per unit of gross domestic product (GDP) (Grubb, 2004; Barrett, 2006; Edmonds et al., 2007; Fischer and Newell, 2008; Bosetti et al., 2009).”
Beliefs about Climate Beliefs: The Importance of Second-Order Opinions for Climate Politics (2017, background): “…Todorov and Mandisodza 2004; Ahler 2014 7Boykoff and Boykoff 2004; Oreskes and Conway 2011; Linden et al. 2014 8Young 2002; Keohane and Victor 2011; Barrett 2006; Urpelainen 2012; Stern 2007 9Layzer 2007, 2012 10Rabe 2004 11Stokes 2015; Hughes and Urpelainen 2015; Aklin and Urpelainen 2013b…”
