analyze the effect of risk aversion, ambiguity aversion and the elasticity of intertemporal substitution on the willingness to … pay to avoid climate change risk. The first part of the paper analyzes a general disaster (jump) risk model with a … constant arrival rate of disasters. This provides useful intuition in how preferences influence valuation of long-term risk …

We develop a financial-economic model for carbon pricing with an explicit representation of decision making under risk … specifications. We show that risk associated with high damages in the long term leads to stringent mitigation of carbon dioxide … emissions in the near term. Our results provide insight into how a systematic incorporation of climate-related risk influences …

This note considers the treatment of risk and uncertainty in the recently established "social cost of carbon" (SCC) for … discounting, it mis-estimated climate risk, possibly hugely. Given the uncertainty about estimating the SCC, the note concludes by … that very target. -- Ambiguity ; climate change ; discounting ; integrated assessment modelling ; risk ; social cost of …

We use perturbation methods to derive a rule for the optimal risk-adjusted social cost of carbon (SCC) that … different aversions to risk and intertemporal fluctuations, convex damages, uncertainties in economic growth, atmospheric carbon …-run climate feedbacks. Our non-certainty-equivalent rule for the SCC incorporates precaution, risk insurance, and climate …
