TL;DR: The AMPERE modeling comparison project as mentioned in this paper explored the consequences of global emissions following the proposed policy stringency of the national pledges from the Copenhagen Accord and Cancun Agreements to 2030.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyse the potential of adopting the flexibility mechanism of the Kyoto Protocol and show that widening the market to include developing countries is more effective than the Annex B market solution, which reduces the cost of implementing Kyoto for OECD countries and at the same time allows the countries of the South to benefit from selling the permits.

TL;DR: In this article, the role of renewable energy (RE) in climate change mitigation has been explored, and the results on renewable energy deployment levels vary considerably across the EMF27 models, which can be attributed to different assumptions about technology costs, resource potentials and systems integration.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors assess the changes in particle air pollution emissions and consequent effects on health that are likely to result from greenhouse-gas mitigation measures in the electricity generation sector in the European Union (EU), China, and India.

TL;DR: The authors quantify environmental co-benefits and adverse side-effects of a portfolio of alternative power sector decarbonisation pathways and show that the scale of co-Benefits as well as profiles of adverse side effects depend strongly on technology choice.
