A critique of climate damage modeling: Carbon fertilization, adaptation, and the limits of FUND
چکیده انگلیسی
We explore these issues in FUND 3.8, comparing the model's default results to scenarios without carbon fertilization and adaptation. We find that carbon fertilization is projected to provide a large net benefit, offsetting many of the damages in other categories; almost half of this benefit occurs in China, based on FUND's assumptions about the regional strength of carbon fertilization. Automatic adaptation, tied to increases in per capita income, reduces many damages, particularly deaths caused by climate change; almost three-fourths of the reduction in climate-linked deaths is projected to occur in sub-Saharan Africa. Moreover, many categories of damages are surprisingly small, a topic that warrants further research. As long as FUND's default forecasts remain significant in climate policy debate, it is important to understand the sources of FUND's low estimates of climate damages.
