Environmental consciousness and moral hazard in international agreements to protect the environment

Article Abstract:

The conditions under which countries will agree to band together to reduce environmentally damaging emissions are examined. The study considers a scenario in which environmentally conscious countries agree to provide side payments to another group of less environmentally conscious nations in order to create a strong international environmental coalition. A mechanism for enforcing the international agreement is also examined.
