Two key messages emerging from the dialog between negotiators and scientists • From the negotiators to the modellers:Do cost-effectiveness instead of cost-benefit analysis!
1992: Cost-effectiveness analysis for Second Sulfur Protocol
Two key messages emerging from the dialog between negotiators and scientists • From the negotiators to the modellers:Do cost-effectiveness instead of cost-benefit analysis! 2. From the modellers to the negotiators:A multi-pollutant/multi-effect approach can increase economic efficiency and open scope for policy deals!
Evolution of the multi-pollutant/multi-effect approach1985-1994: RAINS for the Second Sulfur Protocol
Evolution of the multi-pollutant/multi-effect approach1995-2000: RAINS for the Gothenburg Protocol
Evolution of the multi-pollutant/multi-effect approach2000-2004: RAINS includes fine particles
Evolution of the multi-pollutant/multi-effect approach2005++: GAINS includes interactions with greenhouse gases
Conclusions • Integrated assessment can greatly improve the policy relevance of scientific assessments • A structured dialogue between negotiators and modellers is essential • With increasing marginal costs of the remaining measures, capturing the full set of multiple benefits of pollution control measures will be critical:Integrated assessment modelling offers a practical approach
