The paper clarifies the link between changes in risk aversion and the effect on the consumption discount rate. In a … rate to a change in risk aversion depends on some fundamental properties of the considered uncertainties. The application … of this general result to specific forms of uncertainty extends existing results to more general forms of risk and yields …

Common integrated assessment models produce the counterintuitive result that higher risk aversion does not lead to …. The simulations show that aversion to this tipping point risk has little effect. For climate sensitivity of realistic …

-form expressions of welfare loss from shocks and epistemological uncertainty identify the interaction of (intertemporal) risk attitude …

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 …
