متن کاملClimate Protection Assessment of Costs of Inaction or Delayed Action of Climate Protection and Climate Change
T he ultimate objective of the climate convention and of related instruments like the Kyoto protocol is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to a level that avoids dangerous climate change. In order to considerably reduce risks of climate change, the European Union already decided a climate protection target: to prevent global surface temperature to increase more than 2°C (Celsius) compared to pr...
متن کاملThe damage costs of climate change towards a dynamic representation
Economic assessments of climate change impacts are commonly presented as the effect of a climate change associated with a doubling of the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide on the current economy. This paper is an attempt to express impact as a function of both climate change and socioeconomic change. With regard to climate change, issues discussed are level versus rate of change, spee...
متن کاملEstimates of the Damage Costs of Climate Change
Monetised estimates of the impact of climate change are derived. Impacts are expressed as functions of climate change and ‘vulnerability’. Vulnerability is measured by a series of indicators, such as per capita income, population above 65, and economic structure. Impacts are estimated for nine world regions, for the period 2000–2200, for agriculture, forestry, water resources, energy consumptio...
متن کاملThe Damage Costs of Climate Change Toward More Comprehensive Calculations
It is argued that estimating the damage costs of a certain benchmark climate change is not sufficient. What is needed are cost functions and confidence intervals. Although these are contained in the integrated models and their technical manuals, this paper brings them into the open in order to stimulate discussion. After briefly reviewing the benchmark climate change damage costs, region-specif...
