A compendium of options for government policy to encourage private sector responses to potential climate change
The structure of this executive summary invites a word of explanation for the reader. Conventionally, such a summary presents the principal findings of a study and summarizes the research design and procedures by which the results were obtained. This report, however, is designed as a reference document consisting of a compendium of generic policy instruments and specific policy options that are available to the US Government in the event that it decides to encourage significant private sector to prevent, mitigate, or adapt to climate change. As such, most of the body of this report consists of summaries of existing knowledge about and experience with these policy instruments, and identifies opportunities and constraints for their application. The study did not attempt to establish a bottom-line recommendation, therefore, one cannot be presented here. 11 tabs.
