Report n° 7: « The Stern review on the economics of climate change »
Climate change
[Reports]
In view of the media coverage of the Stern Review, analysis of the substance of the report cannot be separated from that of its context in order to grasp the implications for decision-makers. It is symptomatic that the controversies had been confined to the assessment of the damages, when questions of the cost of preventive action, of international coordination and of decarbonisation are just as important. The present analysis will rectify that imbalance hereafter by discussing the Stern review both on the issue of damage and of decarbonisation policies, after which it will come to the strategic consequences to be drawn for economic actors.
