Abstract<\/span><\/h2>\n

This paper explores Vermont\u2019s climate responsibility in the context of comparing GHG emissions data on a per capita basis, as well as on a cumulative basis. The purpose of this research is to analyze how Vermont\u2019s emissions stack up against those of other jurisdictions, in order to better understand the state\u2019s relative responsibility. In this paper, we also draw on concepts from moral philosophy and economics to understand climate responsibility as a collective action problem and a public goods dilemma.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n
