This module, based on the 2006 textbook "Environmental and Natural Resource Economics: A Contemporary Approach", discusses the scientific evidence on climate change, including recent projections on temperature and sea-level rise. It then evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of economic analysis of the issue, including discussion of valuation of environmental damages, carbon taxes, tradable permits, and policy issues.
