TL;DR: Access to reliable forecasts of ecosystem state, ecosystem services, and natural capital will increase the ability to forecast ecosystem change and create a capacity to produce, evaluate, and communicate forecasts of critical ecosystem services.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combining price and quantity controls to mitigate global climate change
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that price controls are more efficient than quantity controls due to their political appeal and that uncertainty about compliance costs causes equivalent price and quantity controls to behave differently and leads to divergent welfare consequences.
Journal ArticleDOI
