It has become commonly accepted that a successful climate strategy should compound mitigation and adaptation. The … accurate combination between adaptation and mitigation that can best address climate change is still an open question.

The usually assumed two categories of costs involved in climate change policy analysis, namely abatement and damage costs, hide the presence of a third category, namely adaptation costs. This dodges the determination of an appropriate level for them. Including adaptation costs explicitly in the...
