It's one of the more realistic papers I have seen.  For example.

"The last twenty years of largely futile effort on GHG control
confirms that the path to abatement will be long and torturous.
Abatement policies would impose high costs on states with
GHG-intensive economies; yet, most of these states stand to reap only
modest benefits from abatement;  conversely, few of the states with
the most to gain from limiting GHG output have much power to bring it
about (Buys, et al. 2007). Moreover, within key states, major power
blocs oppose GHG controls"

This is essentially my argument for the "pull" of very low cost
non-carbon energy as opposed to the "push" of trying to limit carbon
emissions.  Who is going to pump and refine oil for 5 dollar a gallons
gasoline when carbon neutral synthetic gasoline costs a dollar a
gallon?
