Economists are not engaged enough with the IPCC

Index

Abstract

This paper explores the underrepresentation of economists in the IPCC Assessment Reports (ARs), particularly in Working Group 2 (WGII). The author argues this is a dual problem: a supply issue (few economists focus on climate change) and a demand issue (the IPCC doesn't actively recruit economists). The paper examines the types of economic research and why they may not align with the IPCC's needs, and discusses potential paths toward increased collaboration.
