Abstract: This article reviews the progress made since the signing of the Framework Convention on Climate Change. We argue for increasing the efforts to introduce a collective decision making process. Developing arguments mainly from a Southern perspective, the article discusses the risk factors that need to be assessed for collective decision making, the implications of such processes and policy instruments such as Joint Implementation to implement the decision making framework. The criteria for inter-regional allocation of emission abatement and the potential cooperation between North and South in the context of climate change are also discussed. The article highlights the need to reduce the risk of climate change by early action. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
