Abstract
El artículo comienza explicando las relaciones entre emisiones, concentraciones, calentamiento global, estimaciones de aumentos de temperatura y valoración de riesgos. A continuación se aportan datos y se comentan algunos indicadores que relacionan las emisiones de dióxido de carbono y el suministro total de energía primaria. Se analizan dos instrumentos fundamentales para hacer frente al cambio climático: el precio de los gases de efecto invernadero y las políticas para favorecer el cambio tecnológico. Por último, se explica cómo se calcula el Climate Change Performance Index y se comentan los resultados más importantes del informe correspondiente al año 2018.
This paper explains the relations between emissions, concentrations, global warming, estimations of incremental temperature rises, and risk assessment. Afterwards, data are provided and discussed through some indicators related to emissions of carbon dioxide and the total supply of primary energy. Two fundamental instruments to tackle climate change are analyzed: the price of greenhouse gases and policies to stimulate positive technological change. Finally, an explanation is provided on how The Climate Change Performance Index is defined and the main results of the report corresponding to 2018 are commented.
