Wind, Rain, and fire : Solutions for Global warming
The predictioneer's game: Using the logic of brazen self-interest to see and shape the future, by Bruce Bueno de Mesquita, employs game theory models to process information on his subject's self interest and to determine what the subject will do and why. Regarding conferences to establish universal protocols, such as Bali, Kyoto, or Copenhagen, he concluded that nations will cheat on agreements, confirming the tragedy of the commons. The resulting increase of rain, wind, and fire, due to climate change, will prompt solutions from these basic elements, he contends. Therefore, Bueno de Mesquita remains optimistic about technology's ability to adapt and capitalize on environmental changes.
