A model United Nations experiment on climate negotiations
Hofmann, Elisa; Kyriacou, Lucas; Schmidt, Klaus M. - In: Jahrbücher für Nationalökonomie und Statistik 243 (2023) 5, pp. 543-566
Weitzman, M.L. (2014. Can negotiating a uniform carbon price help to internalize the global warming externality? J. Assoc. Environ. Resour. Econ. 1: 29-49) proposed that focusing international climate negotiations on a uniform common commitment (such as a uniform carbon price) is more effective...

A model united nations experiment on climate negotiations
Hofmann, Elisa; Kyriacou, Lucas; Schmidt, Klaus M. - 2021
Weitzman (2014) proposed that focusing international climate negotiations on a uniform carbon price is more effective than Paris style negotiations in achieving ambitious climate action. We put this hypothesis to an experimental test by simulating international negotiations on climate change in...

Carbon prices for the next hundred years
Gerlagh, Reyer; Liski, Matti - 2014
World income grows fast without verifiable climate-change impacts on the economy. The growth spell can end if climate impacts turn real but this can take decades to learn. We develop a tractable stochastic climate-economy model with a hidden-state impact process to evaluate the contributions of...

Temperature and low-stakes cognitive performance
Zhang, Xin; Chen, Xi; Zhang, Xiaobo - 2023
This paper offers one of the first evidence in a developing country context that transitory exposure to high temperatures may disrupt low-stakes cognitive activities across a range of age cohorts. By matching eight years of repeated cognitive tests among all the participants in a nationally...

Measuring Social Benefits of Media Coverage : How Coverage of Climate Change Affects Behavior
Beattie, Graham - 2022
It has been well-documented that beliefs and actions can be affected by media coverage. In this paper, I investigate a case of this phenomenon where coverage of a large social problem – climate change – could create a potentially large social benefit – reduction of carbon emissions....

Climate Change and Extreme Events : An Assessment of Economic Implications
Roson, Roberto; Calzadilla, Alvaro; Pauli, Francesco - 2014
We use a general equilibrium model of the world economy, and a regional economic growth model, to assess the economic implications of vulnerability from extreme meteorological events, induced by the climate change. In particular, we first consider the impact of climate change on ENSO and NAO...

Climate Change and Diet
Bose, Neha - 2020
Though many in the general public are concerned about climate change, most are unaware that agriculture and food production accounts for about one quarter of aggregate green house emissions and therefore, diet change is one of the most effective ways that individuals can reduce their climate...

The effect of temperature experiences on climate adaptation policy prioritization : evidence from the European Union
Heckenhahn, Jonas - 2025
adaptation policies—both relative to mitigation measures and in absolute terms. To address these questions, this study links … distance framework. In contrast, cold exposure reduces absolute adaptation support and increases people’s relative mitigation … needs with essential long-term mitigation targets. …
