Abstract
Abstract In 2003 the Kyoto Protocol, which imposes legally binding greenhouse gas emission constraints on industrialized countries, is likely to enter into force. The Protocol has been celebrated as a milestone in climate protection, but standard economic theory casts doubt that it will go beyond symbolic policy. In this paper, we show that the final concretion of the Kyoto Protocol is consistent with the theoretical prediction: Kyoto more or less boils down to business‐as‐usual without significant compliance costs to ratifying parties. JEL Classification: D58, Q43, Q58 Conséquences économiques et environnementales du protocole de Kyoto En 2003, le protocole de Kyoto, qui impose aux pays industrialisés l’obligation de réduire leurs émissions de gaz à effet de serre, entrera probablement en vigueur. Si le protocole a été accueilli comme un grand pas en avant dans le combat pour protéger l’environnement, la théorie économique jette un regard sceptique sur la portée réelle d’un tel accord et le considére comme un geste symbolique. Dans ce mémoire, on montre que la concrétisation finale de l’accord de Kyoto s’arrime aux prédictions théoriques : Kyoto n’est rien de plus que « business‐as‐usual » et n’impliquera pas de coûts significatifs pour les parties qui ont signé le protocole.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
