Equal CO2 Budget Population Weighted CO2 Budget
Cumulative regional CO2 emissions budgets for efficient, regional equalisation of cumulative emissions, and regional per capita
equalisation of cumulative emissions (Historical Data source: Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center http://cdiac.ornl.gov/).
16. Rule 6 & Rule 7 explained
β’ Rule 6
β’ Allocates future emissions permits on a cumulative equal budget
per capita between 1790 and 2100. Regions that emit more than
their allocated CO2 budget must purchase permits from those
that have not broken their budget in any given time step.
Regions that have already spent their cumulative CO2 budget
pay into a clean development mechanism (CDM), which
distributes their carbon debt equally per time step at the given
marginal cost of carbon at that time step.
β’ Rule 7
β’ Interprets the Brazil proposal as a combination of an
interpolation grandfathering rule from the current emissions per
capita regionally to allocation of future emissions based on
population intensity per cumulative emissions. This balances
historical cumulative emissions responsibility and population
growth. This allows developing countries a larger share of future
emission based on low historical emissions, but become bound
by an increasing share of a declining global emission budget per
year.

18. Conclusions
β’ The 2 Degree goal is barely technically feasible and comes with
prohibitively expensive marginal abatement costs.
β’ The technologically efficient global cumulative cost of the 2 degree
goal is 5% GDP on aggregate with regional variations of between
2.5% and 11% GDP.
β’ Equitable burden sharing rules require massive capital transfers of
trillions US $ (undiscounted) per year in the second half of the
century.
β’ Emissions per capita budgets are not necessarily in the best
interests of developing countries
β’ China is best off when the burden sharing rules focus on equalisation for
economic losses,
β’ India, Other developing Asia and Africa have greater economic benefits
when rules focus on equitable cumulative emissions per capita.
β’ These burden sharing rules are politically infeasible given the scale
of capital transfers
β’ Compensating LDCs for relative energy cost losses has the smallest
capital transfers and potentially the most politically favourable rule?
β’ Rule 6 or Rule 7 is probably the most equitable, but politically
difficult messaging and possibly counter productive by induced
delayed action
