SANEM is delighted to present the 8th Episode of Youthonomics. The previous 7 episodes of this writing competition for the youth has received a widespread response from students around Bangladesh.
A platform for the youth to express their opinion on important national and international issues related to Economics, winners are awarded prizes and certificates in this competition. The best write-ups will be published in SANEM Blog.
The topic of Youthonomics-8 is “Economics of Climate Change”.
The economics of climate change refers to the study of the economic costs and benefits of climate change, and the analysis of the economic impact of actions targeting at limiting its effects. However, the economics of climate change is challenging due to the fact that there are huge uncertainties in the estimation of both the costs and benefits related to climate change. The precision of the time horizon, over which benefits and costs of climate change would accrue, is debatable. Also, there are uncertainties over thresholds for climate change impacts and the pace and form of technological innovation that can take shape in the future.
