CLIMATE CHANGE
Impacts, adaptation
and political constraints
From June 17 to June 21, 2019

OVERVIEW
Climate change impacts on the economy (on agriculture, income, migration) and appropriate regulation of « the greatest
externality the world has ever seen », as the Stern Review puts it, are increasingly at the center of the policy and scientific
debate. This PSE summer school program aims at teaching participants the cutting‐edge research on the topic and to
familiarize them with the relevant methods to analyze the issue (econometric analysis, dynamic modelling). The objective
of the course is to equip the participants with the background and tools needed as a researcher to contribute to this
dynamic field. The main questions we cover are the following: How do we measure the impacts of climate change on
economic outcomes? What are the relevant economic instruments to combat climate change in a globalized world? How
can migration and trade help countries and individuals mitigate the impacts of climate change and/or disasters? How do
lobbying and information acquisition influence the actual climate policies?

The course is divided in five parts:
     Measuring the impacts of climate change on agriculture (taught by Wolfram Schlenker)
     Measuring the impacts of climate change and natural disasters on growth and migration (taught by Katrin
        Millock)
     Trade and the Environment: Impacts and adaptation (taught by Hélène Ollivier)
     Macroeconomics of climate change (taught by Katheline Schubert)
     Lobbying and Private Politics (taught by Mireille Chiroleu‐Assouline)

WORKSHOP
Participants will have the opportunity to submit a paper to be presented within this program. Selected papers will be
presented in front of participants and faculty in slots reserved for such presentations.

PREREQUISITES
A pre‐requisite knowledge of Environmental Economics at intermediate (Master or very strong undergraduate) level is
preferable. Knowledge of modern econometric methods is also required.

Measuring the Impacts of Climate Change on
Agriculture
Wolfram Schlenker

                                                            This course takes place on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday

OBJECTIVES
This course focuses on estimating agricultural impacts under a changing climate. We will review the various statistical
techniques and discuss how to use the relevant climate data. We will also explain how to simulate climate change
impacts. We will study the responses to a changing climate in terms of agricultural yields, adaptation from farmers, and
GDP effects.

This course thus intends to give participants an introduction to the state‐of‐the‐art of this burgeoning field of research,
and an understanding of the assumptions and challenges of the current methods.

Measuring the Impacts of Climate Change

OBJECTIVES
This course complements the first course on measuring the economic impacts of climate change, by focusing on the
difference between income and growth effects. We will also study the special impacts of natural disasters, as
compared to more long‐term trends in climate. The course will cover the impacts of temperature and rainfall on total
income and economic growth. It will also focus on recent research analyzing one form of adaptation to climate change,
i.e., migration. The course thus intends to give participants a thorough understanding of the methods used, their
assumptions and challenges.

The Macroeconomics of Climate Change
Katheline Schubert

OBJECTIVES
We will discuss climate change in the perspective of macroeconomic modeling and quantitative evaluation. We present
the building blocks of top‐down Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) and discuss the central questions the modeler
has to address (discounting, damages, uncertainty, non‐linearities, tipping points etc.). We conclude with a
presentation of the DICE model and a discussion about the timing of climate policy and the social cost of carbon.

Lobbying and private politics

                                                 This course takes place on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday

OBJECTIVES
The objective of this course is to analyse the political economy constraints related to the adoption and implementation
of climate change mitigation policies. It will focus on the competition between companies and green NGOs to influence
individuals and public decision‐makers by providing them with information, whether science‐based or biased. The
course will explore in depth how activist pressure influences corporate strategies, and how the interaction of both has
an impact on international negotiations and actual policies.

                                                    This course takes place on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday

OBJECTIVES
This course will cover the latest research on trade and the environment, with a strong emphasis on empirical
applications. We will study the issues related to CO2 emissions being a global externality in a world with little
international cooperation (e.g., carbon leakage). We will also present empirical evidence of trade as a mitigation
mechanism, and study how natural disasters may disrupt trade networks and thus propagate shocks through the
economy.
