The way forward in international climate policy: key issues and new ideas 2014
This publication presents some of the ideas discussed during the Global climate policy conference, which gathered leading climate change academics, policy-advisors and subject matter experts in May 2014 to address some of the critical deadlocks hampering climate negotiations, and to identify new economic, social and political ideas to move the debate forward. These range from the creation of climate ‘club goods’ to the role of green investment vehicles, technology and innovation in supporting mitigation and adaptation activities. This report also explores the social psychology of messaging and how this applies to our communications with the public and the private sector; and considers how personally held concepts of justice and equity might influence negotiations on adaptation, mitigation and loss and damage.
