Env. & Dev. Econ. Research SeminarClimate Change and Inequality - The Role of Mitigation and AdaptationJohannes Emmerling
20. November 2019
Abstract: We study the interaction of inequality and climate change from a conceptual perspective, empirically estimating the relationship on growth, inequality, and regional temperature increase, and implement the result in an optimizing integrated assessment model. We show that several conceptual challenges exist, propose solutions, and show the resulting global income distributions for different scenarios including the 1.5 and 2.0 degree targets.
