We propose a measure of investors' climate sentiment by performing sentiment analysis on StockTwits posts on climate change and global warming. We find that when investors' climate sentiment is high, emission stocks are relatively overpriced. Moreover, we show that an increase in carbon prices...

This paper sheds light on the impact of public attitudes towards climate change and energy disruption on the pricing of emission (carbon-intensive) and clean (low-emission) stocks. We develop a regional indicator of worries about climate change and energy disruption using data from the European...

We examine the effect of voluntary climate risk disclosure on Credit Default Swap (CDS) premiums. We develop a structural credit risk model, in which climate-related disclosures serve as an information source reducing uncertainty about climate risks. The model predicts a negative relation...

There are concerns that climate-related physical and political risks are not yet properly reflected in asset prices. To address these concerns, we develop a dynamic asset pricing framework with two sources of rare disasters: macroeconomic events and climate change. We link carbon emissions and...

We examine convenience yields and risk premiums in the EU-wide CO<sub>2</sub> emissions trading scheme (EU-ETS) during the first Kyoto commitment period (2008-2012). We find that the market has changed from initial backwardation to contango with significantly negative convenience yields in futures...

Climate change becomes a common threat to the world and has been studied by scholars in various fields. In the field of …

We produce novel empirical evidence on the relevance of temperature volatility shocks for the dynamics of macro aggregates and asset prices. Using two centuries of UK temperature data, we document that the relationship between temperature volatility and the macroeconomy varies over time. First,...

This study considers the implications of long-run temperature risk in U.S. equity markets. Using raw temperature data, I create a proxy for low frequency temperature shocks and test for the existence of a priced temperature risk factor. I find no evidence supporting the existence of a...

I analyze the marginal value of reducing greenhouse gas emissions (the "social cost of carbon") under uncertainty about warming, under uncertainty about how much warming reduces consumption, and under stochastic shocks to consumption growth. I theoretically demonstrate that each of these sources...
