Protocol for estimating the impact of climate change on economic growth and inequality under climate policies

Abstract

Summary: The impact of climate change on economic inequality has attracted increasing attention from both government and academia. Here, we present a protocol for estimating both the impact of climate change on economic growth and economic growth inequality under multiple climate policies. We describe steps for constructing an uncertainty analysis framework, collecting and pre-processing data, and estimating the climate-economic response. We then detail procedures of predicting climate policy impact and calculating inter-country economic growth inequality.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Tang et al. (2023).1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
