• IPCC baseline scenarios have over-projected CO2 emissions and economic growth (2020, background): “The likelihood of future periods comparably tumultuous as the past decade should factor into emission scenario uncertainty ranges, especially given the likelihood of climate change causing economic, social, and political upheavals (Carleton and Hsiang 2016).”
• Food security and conflict: Empirical challenges and future opportunities for research and policy making on food security and conflict (2019, background): “Several studies have documented that higher temperatures may depress economic output and growth, which may lead to conflict (Hsiang, 2010; Jones and Olken, 2010; Dell, Jones and Olken, 2014; Carleton and Hsiang, 2016).”
• Global warming has increased global economic inequality (2019, background): “Recent research has identified pathways by which changes in climate can affect the fundamental building blocks of economic production (11, 12).”
• The impact of climate conditions on economic production. Evidence from a global panel of regions (2020, background): “Temperature fluctuations and weather extremes have been shown to have major impacts on economic activity (Dell et al., 2014; Carleton and Hsiang, 2016), human well-being (Patz et al.”
• Climate change and migration: Is agriculture the main channel? (2019, methodology): “The presumption is that adverse weather shocks, induced by very hot (or very cold) temperature, by affecting mortality, morbidity and early life (Carleton and Hsiang, 2016), could induce people to migrate.”
