A preview of Climate Shock

NCSE is pleased to offer a free preview (PDF) of Gernot Wagner and Martin L. Weitzman's Climate Shock: The Economic Consequences of a Warming Planet (Princeton University Press, 2015). The preview consists of chapter 7, "What You Can Do," in which Wagner and Weitzman offer advice from the perspective of economics for reacting to climate change, including screaming, coping, and profiting. 

Jeffrey Sachs writes, ""A remarkable book on climate change, Climate Shock is deeply insightful, challenging, eye-opening, thought-provoking, and sheer fun to read. It will help you to think clearly and incisively about one of the most important issues of our generation." Wagner is lead senior economist at the Environmental Defense Fund; Weitzman is professor of economics at Harvard University.
