Abstract Climate change due to anthropogenic CO2 and other greenhouse gas emissions has had and will
continue to have widespread negative impacts on human society and natural ecosystems. Drastic
and concerted actions should be undertaken immediately if such impacts are to be prevented. The
Paris Agreement on climate change aims to limit global mean temperature below 2 °C compared to
the pre-industrial level. Using simulation and optimization tools and the most recent data, this paper
investigates optimal emissions policies satisfying certain temperature constraints. The results show
that only if we consider negative emissions coupled with drastic emissions… More >
