Potential policy-relevant tipping elements that could be triggered by global warming this century, with shadingindicating their uncertain thresholds. For each threshold, the transition from white to yellow indicates a lower bound on its proximity, and the transition from yellow to red, an upper bound. The degree of uncertainty isrepresented by the spread of the colour transition.

Atmosphere as a Global Common
• Atmosphere is a scarce resource – fossil carbon is not• Economic approach to deal with scarcity in an efficient way:
– Establish prices on scarcities
• How to determine scarcity price on carbon?– Assigning property rights according to the scarcity of the atmosphere– Distributing the emission rights according to principles of fairness and justice

> 12.000 GtC
Atmosphere as a limited resource

Supposed Effects
• Costs of REDD are underestimated
• Proposed fund solutions would have to stabilize the price on a high level to compensate the effects of rising oil prices. This is politically unlikely
• Including forests into fragmented emission trading systemscan thus lead to higher deforestation rates than a comprehensive fund approach
