Economic Development under Climate Change: Economy-Wide and Regional Analysis for Ethiopia

Amsalu Woldie Yalew, "Economic Development under Climate Change: Economy-Wide and Regional Analysis for Ethiopia"
English | ISBN: 3658294124 | 2020 | 134 pages | PDF | 6 MB

Amsalu Woldie Yalew attempts to address the direct and indirect economic effects of climate change, adaptation costs, and adaptation finance in developing countries with emphasis to Ethiopia using a static computable general equilibrium (CGE) model coupled with a regional module. The results show that the economy-wide effects of climate change are profound. Planned public adaptation that aims to fully neutralize climate change-induced agricultural productivity shocks may help to avert the aggregate effects but with residual effects. The results also indicate that structural change underpins climate-resilient development as it contributes to dampen the adverse consequences of climate change on aggregate GDP and households’ welfare.
