Four Perspectives on Individual Freedoms and Climate Change

Four Perspectives on Individual Freedoms and Climate Change

On April 12, 2022, the University of British Columbia, Okanagen, sponsored an on-line symposium, “A Wicked Problem: Individual Freedoms and Climate Change.” Here is a link to the slideshow of my presentation at the conference, which discusses four perspectives on the problem:

  • Applying Lockean property rights to the climate problem
  • Climate change as a coordination problem
  • A Hayekian perspective: Prices without markets or markets without prices?
