Bottom up approaches to defining future climate mitigation commitments
This report analyses a number of alternative, bottom-up approaches, i.e. technology and performance standards; technology Research and Development agreements, sectoral targets, etc. While bottom-up approaches are concluded as being valuable components of a future climate regime, we conclude that they do not seem to offer a real alternative to a climate regime defining quantified emission reduction and limitation targets, as they provide little certainty about the overall environmental effectiveness of climate policies.
