Climate Seminar Series - Global climate change architecture: comparing blueprints from Australia and China from a game theory perspective
Dr Peter Wood

This seminar shall discuss international cooperation on climate change from a game theory perspective, and some recent proposals for how international emissions allocations will be distributed. I will examine the conditions suggested by the Australian government for Australia to take on a 25 per cent target, and examine international allocations suggested in the Garnaut review. Government and non-governmnet proposals from China will also be examined.
