Abstract:
Climate experts delegated by countries to COP 24 and COP 25 show much agreement on international energy policy measures in the context of climate protection. Experts on average also agree with the proposal of compensating countries with large oil and gas reserves for not extracting them. But experts are more likely to agree with the proposed policy when they believe that their countries are reliant on oil and gas revenues, and hence potential recipients of the compensation.
