Data for a Greener World
Author: International Monetary Fund
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
Data for a Greener World presents a structured discussion on how to measure the economic and financial dimensions of climate change. It combines economic theory and analysis with real world examples of how climate data can be constructed for different country settings, based on existing climate science and economic data. The book identifies important climate data gaps, as well as practical and innovative approaches to close many of these gaps. The book discusses how to track greenhouse gas emission by production and consumption (Chapters 1-2), which lead to physical risks (Chapters 3-4) and transition risks (Chapters 5-7) and concludes with cross-border implications of climate risks (Chapters 8-9). The book also showcases a collaboration of seven international organizations: European Central Bank, Eurostat, International Energy Agency, International Monetary Fund, Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development, World Bank, and World Trade Organization. Chapter contributions come from leading practitioners and experts in the fields of energy and climate change issues. This volume also serves as a reference guide for the IMF's Climate Change Indicators Dashboard and future research in this area.
