A growing literature suggests that carbon emissions are most efficiently reduced by carbon pricing. The evidence base on the effectiveness... Read more
The authors of this paper show that with medium estimates for damage functions, global damages are in the range of 10% to 12% of GDP by 2100 in a baseline scenario with 3 °C temperature change, and about 2% in a well-below 2 °C scenario. Read more
