ABSTRACT: The Clean Development Mechanism: Institutional Breakthrough or Institutional Nightmare?

The Clean Development Mechanism could be the key that unlocks the barrier to ratification of the Kyoto Protocol. The CDM, which provides a way of transferring financial and technological resources to developing countries in exchange for emissions reductions, is seen as the way to demonstrate meaningful participation by developing countries, removing that obstacle to U.S. ratification of the KP and encouraging action by other countries.
