摘要
This paper examines the economics of stabilizing atmospheric CO2 concentrations, A particular concentrations target can be achieved in a variety of ways, It turns out that the choice of emissions time-path is as important as the concentrations level itself in determining the ultimate price-tag, Rather than choosing arbitrary emission trajectories, more attention needs to be devoted to identifying those paths that minimize the costs of achieving a specific target.
