Understanding the adaptation deficit: why are poor countries more vulnerable to climate events than rich countries?

Fankhauser, Samuel; McDermott, Thomas K. J. - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2014

Poor countries are more heavily affected by extreme weather events and future climate change than rich countries. One of the reasons for this is the so-called adaptation deficit, that is, limits in the ability of poorer countries to adapt. This paper analyses the link between income and...
