How Much Does Mitigation of Anthropogeneous Influence on Climate Change Cost?
https://doi.org/10.32609/0042-8736-2003-1-104-116
Abstract
The assessment of the scale of anthropogeneous emission and concentration of greenhouse gases is given in the article. It is shown that mitigation is closely connected with issues of development goals, equity of distribution of goods produced and taken from the Nature and of sustainability of growth itself. An attempt is made to evaluate the costs of lowering emissions of greenhouse gases and Russia's role in the process. It is concluded that the main task for our country is to attract investments for transferring the economy on the energy-efficient path of development using the Kyoto Mechanisms.
