Climate Change and Property Rights

There has been much discussion in free market circles about market-based solutions to global warming that minimize the threat that big government poses to property rights. But less attention has been paid to the threat that greenhouse gas emitters themselves might pose to private property. This installment of Reason Roundtable explores these issues, with essays by Reason's Shikha Dalmia, Case Western Reserve University law professor Jonathan H. Adler, and author Indur Goklany.

• Climate Change: No Harm, No Claim
  All countries have engaged in greenhouse-gas generating activities

  Indur Goklany

• Climate Change As If Property Rights Mattered
  Individuals should be compensated by those whose actions create environmental problems that produce provable damages to their property

  Jonathan H. Adler

• Global Warming: Keeping Property Rights at the Forefront
  Looking for solutions that would least empower the government - and least threaten property rights
