Climate Change: The Economics of Mitigation and Adaptation
Building on the foundational course Climate Change: Economics, Politics, and Global Governance, which examines why climate action is politically and economically difficult, this course moves from understanding the challenges to exploring how economists design, price, finance, and evaluate responses to climate change. It is an applied, tools-focused deep dive into the economics of mitigation — including carbon pricing, abatement costs, and transition finance — and adaptation — including valuation under deep uncertainty, adaptation finance, insurance, and nature-based solutions.
