Environmental Policy and Innovation: A Decade of Research (2019, background): “To provide some insights into how innovation may respond to increased climate damages, Miao and Popp (2014) study the impact of natural disasters on innovation.”
Understanding the adaptation deficit: why are poor countries more vulnerable to climate events than rich countries? (2013, background): “For example, Noy (2009), Kahn (2005), Keefer et al.”
Path dependence, innovation and the economics of climate change (2014, background): “Modelling of this sort suggests that a critical feature of the system transition is the extent to which the dirty and the clean technology are easy to substitute for each other (Hassler et al., 2012; Miao and Popp, 2013).”
Climate Impacts on Economic Growth as Drivers of Uncertainty in the Social Cost of Carbon (2014, unknown): “We do not consider the possibilities suggested by some authors, that investment in R&D could drive growth that counteract climate damages (Miao and Popp, 2013) or that natural disasters stimulate innovations and actually produce net growth (Skidmore and Toya, 2002).”
