Abstract

This chapter discusses three key premises that characterise the current debate on climate change and the state of the world’s energy economy. First, the developing world is far more susceptible to climate change than the developed world. Second, the best defence for developing nations against climate change will be their own economic and social advancement. Third, the rich countries will need to provide financial support to help the developing world reduce greenhouse gas emissions without disrupting or interfering substantially with their own economies. New global institutions will be needed to mobilise rich countries to provide vital energy aid to poor countries, to represent the larger developing countries to help them decide how to share those resources, and to serve as an effective intermediary to channel the resources and monitor how they are distributed and used.
