Impact of population growth and population ethics on climate change mitigation policy
Future population growth is uncertain and matters for climate policy: higher growth entails more emissions and means more people will be vulnerable to climate-related impacts. We show that how future population is valued importantly determines mitigation decisions. Using the Dynamic Integrated Climate-Economy model, we explore two approaches to valuing population: a discounted version of total ...

population growth can greatly impact on greenhouse gas emission pattern in the future. considering the importance of population growth in climate change studies, the present research concentrates on the population growth of the middle east in the late 21th century based on the iiasa population scenarios. under the projections of a1-b1 scenario, the world’s population will grow up to 8.7 billion...
متن کاملImpact of climate change on biological invasions and population distributions
The purpose of this BIRS workshop was to generate, develop and apply new tools for the analysis of invasions and population distributions under environmental change. Thus the mathematical problems that we addressed were intrinsically spatial. Not only do temperatures vary with latitude, the very processes of population spread and shifts in range boundary are modelled using equations with spatia...
متن کاملPopulation and Climate Change
The book examines the role of demographic factors in greenhouse gas emissions and asks how population affects the ability of societies and institutions to respond to the potential impacts of climate change. Based on this review, it considers whether climate change strengthens the case for population policies. The book provides overview chapters aimed at nonspecialists on climate change, populat...
