Adaptation in International Agreements: Key to Global Emission Reduction Success.
The article explores how countries can work together to reduce emissions and combat climate change. The researchers created a game to simulate how countries decide to join an international agreement and how they set their emission levels. They found that the way countries adapt to climate change affects the stability of the agreement. Depending on how adaptation reduces damages, different numbers of countries may participate in the agreement. The results show that cooperation can be influenced by the way countries adapt to environmental challenges.
