The Effect of Climate Change on Economic Growth (Dynamic Computable General Equilibrium Model Approach in Iran)
Climate change is one of the most important issues affecting different economic sectors. Although this phenomenon has had a larger effect on the agricultural sector due to the heavy dependence of agriculture on weather conditions as compared to the other economic sectors, other economic sectors such as the industry, mining and service sectors are also influenced by weather changes due to their ...
متن کاملAgricultural impact of climate change : A general equilibrium analysis with special reference to Southeast Asia
Capitalizing on the most recent worldwide estimates of the impacts of climate change on agricultural production, this paper assesses the economic effects of climate change for Southeast Asian countries through 2080. The results suggest that the aggregate impacts of agricultural damages caused by climate change on the global economy are moderate. However, the uneven distribution of productivity ...
متن کاملThe Regional Impacts of U.S. Climate Change Policy A General Equilibrium Analysis
This paper investigates the impacts at the state and regional levels of policies to limit U.S. carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. It constructs an interregional computable general equilibrium model which divides the U.S. economy into ten industries and 50 states, and simulates the effects of economywide CO2 emission taxes. The results elucidate the sources and consequences of the incidence of abat...
متن کاملOptimal Technological Portfolios for Climate-Change Policy under Uncertainty: A Computable General Equilibrium Approach
When exploring solutions to long-term environmental problems such as climate change, it is crucial to understand how the rates and directions of technological change may interact with environmental policies in the presence of uncertainty. This paper analyzes optimal technological portfolios for global carbon emissions reductions in an integrated assessment model of the coupled social-natural sy...
متن کاملA dynamic general equilibrium analysis of adaptation to climate change in Ethiopia
This study links a multi-sectoral regionalized dynamic computable general equilibrium model of Ethiopia with a system of country-specific hydrology, crop, road and hydropower engineering models to simulate the economic impacts of climate change towards 2050. In the absence of externally funded policy-driven adaptation investments Ethiopia’s GDP in the 2040s will be up to 10 percent below the co...
