When nature rebels: international migration, climate change and inequality

Marchiori, Luca; Schumacher, Ingmar - HAL - 2009

This article analyzes the link between climate change and international migration. We use a two-country overlapping … affects the productivity of the South. Our main findings are: (i) climate change will increase migration; (ii) small impacts … migration, reduces climate change, increases North-South inequality if DRTS are significant; (v) a greener technology reduces …

Transport, health and climate change: Deciding on the optimal policy

Cabantous, Laure; Chanel, Olivier; Vergnaud, Jean-Christophe - HAL - 2010

Transport generates many externalities, some related to atmospheric pollution. In this paper, we focus on two: greenhouse gases, and local pollution. In the search for optimal transport policies, these two externalities have usually been analysed separately. Here, we study them jointly, in a...

ECONOMIC EXPERTISE AND DECISION-MAKING IN CONTROVERSIAL UNIVERSES

Godard, Olivier - HAL - 1996

There are two questions to be considered: a) to which extent the type of framing which may be appropriate for scientific explorations of some issues can also be relevant in a decisionmaking context, in which achieving an agreement among stakeholders is the key problem? b) what is the practical...

Building world narratives for climate change impact, adaptation and vulnerability analyses

Hallegatte, Stéphane; Valentin, Przyluski; … - HAL - 2011

The impacts of climate change on human systems depend not only on the level of emissions but also on how inherently vulnerable these systems are to the changing climate. The large uncertainties over future development and structure of societies and economies mean that the assessment of climate...

Envisioning innovative groundwater regulation policies through scenario workshops in France and Portugal

Rinaudo, Jean-Daniel; Montginoul, Marielle; Varanda, Marta - HAL - 2012

Groundwater management policies will need to be revised in many Mediterranean countries, in light of the impact of climate change and the increasing demand for water. In this paper, we analyze stakeholder perceptions of three groundwater policy scenarios which respectively assume a strengthening...

Geoengineering as an alternative to mitigation: specification and dynamic implications

Sterck, Olivier - HAL - 2011

Geoengineering, i.e. the use of artificial techniques aiming at cooling the planet, is increasingly considered as a realistic alternative to emission mitigation. Several methods are promising for their capacity to quickly halt global warming at a moderate cost. Such cheap technologies might be...

How long can excess pollution persist? The non-cooperative case

Hénin, Pierre-Yves; Schubert, Katheline - HAL - 2008

This paper describes a world composed of two (groups of) countries, which derive their utility from a polluting activity and from the enjoyment of a common environmental quality. The initial situation is both suboptimal and unsustainable: pollution leads to a continuous deterioration of...

Socio-economic Scenario Development for Climate Change Analysis

Kriegler, Elmar; O'Neill, Brian-C; Hallegatte, Stéphane; … - HAL - 2010

Socio-economic scenarios constitute an important tool for exploring the long-term consequences of anthropogenic climate change and available response options. They have been applied for different purposes and to a different degree in various areas of climate change analysis, typically in...

Adaptive Model-Predictive Climate Policies in a Multi-Country Setting

Bréchet, Thierry; Camacho, Carmen; Veliov, Vladimir M. - HAL - 2012

The purpose of this paper is to extend the use of integrated assessment models by defining rational policies based on predictive control and adaptive behavior. The paper begins with an review of the main IAMs and their use. Then the concept of Model Predictive Nash Equilibrium (MPNE) is...

Addressing the climate change sustainable development nexus: the role of multi-stakeholder partnerships

Pinkse, Jonatan; Kolk, Ans - HAL - 2012

While calls are being made to deal with the linkages between climate change and sustainable development to arrive at an integrated policy, concrete steps in this direction have been very limited so far. One of the possible instruments through which both issues may be approached simultaneously is...
