Society for Judgement and Decisionmaking Conference
Decision Making Under Climate Uncertainty: Empirical Results
November 17, 2007

At this conference, three NSF-funded groups, CRED, Climate Decision Making Center at Carnegie Mellon, and Rand Corporation, examined the results of studies on decision making under climate uncertainty and time discounting. The studies show that there are a wide range of opportunities to examine environmental decision making in the context of mitigating global climate change.
