Climate Policies in the Nordics Lars Calmfors and John Hassler

Climate change has become a key concern for policy makers, business leaders and individuals all over the world. There exists a broad scientific consensus that the emissions of greenhouse gases, mainly carbon dioxide (CO₂), is responsible for global warming that, if not halted, could have unacceptable consequences, including catastrophic ones, in at least parts of the world.
