A lot of scholarly and practitioner attention has focused on developing science for adaptation—in other words, understanding the likely impacts of climate change. Yet the science of adaptation, which aims to understand adaptation decision-making, is equally essential. Developing this science is particularly important for low and middle-income countries whose citizens will be hit the hardest by climate change and whose governments are least capable of taking preventive adaptation measures on behalf of their citizens. In this seminar, Professor Ferraro explores two barriers to adaptation in low and middle-income countries: one frequently discussed barrier that may not be as important as claimed – information gaps – and another rarely discussed barrier – personal, subjective discount rates of individuals and households – that may be much more important that heretofore assumed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
