论文摘要
在本文中，我们调查了最近计量经济学贡献，以衡量经济活动与气候变化之间的关系。由于这些影响与子孙后代的福祉的关键相关性，因此出版物爆炸了，致力于衡量这种关系及其主要渠道。经济活动与气候变化之间的关系是复杂的，这两个方向都有因果关系的可能性。从经济活动开始，与经济活动和气候变化相关的渠道是能源消耗和随之而来的污染。因此，我们首先描述了有关经济活动与能源消耗之间相互作用的主要计量经济学贡献，然后移动到描述对经济活动与污染之间相互作用的贡献。最后，我们研究了气候变化与经济活动之间关系的主要结果。气候变化的重要结果是极端天气现象的增加。因此，我们还调查了对灾难性气候现象的经济影响的贡献。
In this paper, we survey recent econometric contributions to measure the relationship between economic activity and climate change. Due to the critical relevance of these effects for the well-being of future generations, there is an explosion of publications devoted to measuring this relationship and its main channels. The relation between economic activity and climate change is complex with the possibility of causality running in both directions. Starting from economic activity, the channels that relate economic activity and climate change are energy consumption and the consequent pollution. Hence, we first describe the main econometric contributions about the interactions between economic activity and energy consumption, moving then to describing the contributions on the interactions between economic activity and pollution. Finally, we look at the main results on the relationship between climate change and economic activity. An important consequence of climate change is the increasing occurrence of extreme weather phenomena. Therefore, we also survey contributions on the economic effects of catastrophic climate phenomena.
