Abstract :
In this paper, we deal with lotteries for financing for preservation of the global commons and carry out simulation on an agent-based artificial society model. Especially, focusing on the preservation of the global commons as the atmospheric quality, when it does not become excessively worse, we show the effectiveness of lotteries with selective incentives, compared to voluntary contributions without those incentives.
