Can We Actually Calculate The Social Cost Of Carbon?, Kyle Mckay
Can We Actually Calculate The Social Cost Of Carbon?, Kyle Mckay
Kyle McKay
Social cost of carbon calculations poorly integrate the risk of worse-case scenarios and their impact on social equity, primarily due to the fundamental limitations of cost-benefit analysis. Continued use of the social cost of carbon is preferable to policy that assumes no social cost to carbon emissions, but risks overconfidence in modeling and political clashes around insufficiently important regulatory changes that could impair necessary larger scale policy changes.

Local Government Planning Responses To The Physical Impacts Of Climate Change In New South Wales, Australia, Nadine E. White
Local Government Planning Responses To The Physical Impacts Of Climate Change In New South Wales, Australia, Nadine E. White
Nadine E White
Effective policy responses of governments to the impacts of unavoidable climate change require effective adaptation plans. This paper presents the results of original research conducted in New South Wales, Australia, on the planning response of local governments for adapting to the physical impacts of climate change. Local government is the level of governance that is at the ‘coal face’ of dealing with sea level rise, coastal erosion, increased storm events, increased flooding, increased drought and other physical impacts of climate change in Australia. The study investigates the perceptions of local government planners regarding the actions taken within their local government …

Heroes And Villains: Cultural Narratives, Mass Opinions, And Climate Change, Michael Jones
Michael D. Jones
Global climate change is easily identified as one of the most pressing and contentious policy problems facing not only the United States, but the human race. In a democratic society such as our own, understanding the public’s capacities and tendencies in processing information and forming opinions about climate change has serious and far-reaching policy implications. Historically quite low, public knowledge about climate change is now on the rise, as is the importance of the issue on the public agenda (Leiserowitz, 2005). Consequently, it is not unreasonable to expect the public, for better or worse, to play a larger role in …

The Limits And Opportunities Of Networks: Municipalities And Canadian Climate Change Policy, Christopher D. Gore
The Limits And Opportunities Of Networks: Municipalities And Canadian Climate Change Policy, Christopher D. Gore
Christopher D Gore
Research on climate change policy and politics has become increasingly focused on the actions and influence of subnational governments. In North America, this attention has been particularly focused on why subnational governments have taken action in the absence of national leadership, what effect action might have on future national climate policy, and whether the collective action of networks of municipal governments are reshaping and challenging the character of national and global climate governance. This paper examines Canadian municipal climate in light of the absence of a comprehensive and effective climate national strategy. The paper considers various reasons why local governments …
Mass Media Coverage Of Global Warming: An Update., John Fisher
Mass Media Coverage Of Global Warming: An Update., John Fisher
Dr. John R. Fisher
A consensus may no longer exist about the causes of climate change. Only last year most media and many people supported the view that climate change was caused by people’s use of fossil fuels. However, the public view of global warming appears to have changed. Much of this change in people’s attitudes came from media coverage. This was augmented by concern for the economy and the effect of global warming legislation on the economy.
While few studies exist of mass media saturation using the diffusion of innovation model, research of global warming coverage by Dispensa and Brulle (2003) and Fisher …
