Understanding the value of reducing greenhouse-gas emissions matters for policy decisions
and climate risk management, but quantification is challenging because of the complex …

Many of the decisions relating to future urban development require information on climate
change risks to cities This review of the academic and “grey” literature provides an overview …

The social cost of carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) measures the monetized value of the damages
to society caused by an incremental metric tonne of CO2 emissions and is a key metric …

This study empirically investigates the nexus among carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions,
economic and population growth, and renewable energy across regions. To do so, an …

Renewable energy appears to be the most optimal alternative to fossil fuel and the widely
accepted pathway towards the mitigation of climate change. However, the costs of adopting …

Cooling of buildings currently represents a considerable fraction of the total energy
consumption in the world. Global and local climate change in combination with the projected …

Very little. A plethora of integrated assessment models (IAMs) have been constructed and
used to estimate the social cost of carbon (SCC) and evaluate alternative abatement …

Econometric models of temperature impacts on GDP are increasingly used to inform global
warming damage assessments. But theory does not prescribe estimable forms of this …

This paper uses historical fluctuations in temperature within countries to identify its effects on
aggregate economic outcomes. We find three primary results. First, higher temperatures …

I review the literature on the economic impacts of climate change, an externality that is
unprecedentedly large, complex, and uncertain. Only 14 estimates of the total damage cost …
