It also reviews their comments on the effects of global warming on the environment and the global economy. Furthermore, the paper looks at the authors' reasons for their views. The paper concludes with an evaluation on the worth of these views by the writer.

From the Paper:

"The article is one of the superbly written socio-economic principles that emerge every now and again from scientists and economists who have very little left to debate. As a result they bring forth the ideals and personalities that they feel should be discussed and leave out the basic issues as to how it truly effects the environment and also the inhabitants of the planet.

"The writers of the article are more concerned with the economics of the policies rather than the logistics. However it is a reasonably well written article that will undoubtedly leave those that can understand the socio-economic jargon feeling either some what perplexed, angered or concurring."
