Drawing upon climate change damage functions previously proposed in the literature that we have calibrated to a common level of damages at 2.5 C, we examine the effect upon the social cost of carbon (SCC) of varying the specification of damages in a DICE-like integrated assessment model. In the...

Environmental degradation due to human economic activities is closely linked to poverty in developing countries and can have long-term effects on well-being and sustainable development. This study investigates the nexus between toxic pollution and poverty by examining the economic impacts of...

We empirically examine how fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution affects labor supply in Japan. The effects of PM2.5 pollution could be mixed. While adverse health effects of PM2.5 pollution can lead to reduced labor supply, workers can rather increase labor supply if their productivity...

Extratropical cyclones have attracted some attention in climate policy circles as a possible significant damage factor of climate change. This study conducts an assessment of economic impacts of increased storm activities under climate change with the integrated assessment model FUND 3.4. In the...
