Taking into account real-world factors that affect investment decision-making could substantially increase estimates of the cost of limiting global warming. It could also shift some of the burden of cutting emissions from developing to industrialized countries. These are the central findings of a paper published today in Nature Climate Change, authored by the Joint Global Change Research Institute (JGCRI), the University of Maryland School of Public Policy, Resources for the Future and the University of California at San Diego.
