Описание:
How knowing the extreme risks of climate change can help us prepare for an uncertain future
If you had a 10 percent chance of having a fatal car accident, you'd take necessary precautions. If your finances had a 10 percent chance of suffering a severe loss, you'd reevaluate your assets. So if we know the world is warming and there's a 10 percent chance this might eventually lead to a catastrophe beyond anything we could imagine, why aren't we doing more about climate change right now? We insure our lives against an uncertain future--why not our planet?
In Climate Shock, Gernot Wagner and Martin Weitzman explore in lively, clear terms the likely repercussions of a hotter planet, drawing on and expanding from work previously unavailable to general audiences. They show that the longer we wait to act, the more likely an extreme event will happen. A city might go underwater. A rogue nation might shoot particles into the Earth's atmosphere, geoengineering cooler temperatures. Zeroing in on the unknown extreme risks that may yet dwarf all else, the authors look at how economic forces that make sensible climate policies difficult to enact, make radical would-be fixes like geoengineering all the more probable. What we know about climate change is alarming enough. What we don't know about the extreme risks could be far more dangerous. Wagner and Weitzman help readers understand that we need to think about climate change in the same way that we think about insurance--as a risk management problem, only here on a global scale.
With a new preface addressing recent developments Wagner and Weitzman demonstrate that climate change can and should be dealt with--and what could happen if we don't do so--tackling the defining environmental and public policy issue of our time.
Описание: Making use of a uniquely rich data set the authors analyze the ecological and economic impacts of a range of policies and examine whether the economic benefits of land clearing surpass the ecological costs. Their conclusions are surprising.

Описание: Uzawa modifies and extends the theoretical premises of orthodox economic theory to those broad enough to be capable of analyzing the phenomena related to environmental disequilibrium, and finding institutional arrangements and policy measures that may bring about a more optimal state where natural and institutional components are harmoniously blended.

Описание: How can we reconcile economic growth with the need to protect the natural environment? Will scarcity of natural resources eventually force economic growth to cease? This book introduces key models and shows how modern growth theory can be used to shed light on the relation between economic growth, natural resources, and the environment.

Описание: The climate policy debate has been dominated by economic estimates of the costs of policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, the distribution of `climate rights` is crucial to determining the economic affects of various policies.
