摘要：The challenges associated with climate change will require governments, citizens, and firms to work collaboratively to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, a task that requires information on companies' carbon risks, opportunities, strategies, and emission levels.

We propose that prior experience with the same partners, that is, 'partner-specific experience,' provides greater benefits than 'general partnering experience' that encompasses all prior alliances with any partner. We further explore some of the boundary conditions for the effects of partner-specific experience. We suggest that the effect of partner-specific expe...
