We study the long-term impact of climate change on economic activity across countries,
using a stochastic growth model where productivity is affected by deviations of temperature …

Climate scientists have spent billions of dollars and eons of supercomputer time studying

Using 40 countries' subnational data, we estimate age-specific mortality-temperature
relationships and extrapolate them to countries without data today and into a future with …

This paper characterizes the link between ambient temperatures and a broad set of mental
health outcomes. We find that higher temperatures increase emergency department visits for …

Energy poverty is a growing societal challenge that puts the welfare of many European
