ECON 260I - Time, Uncertainty, and Environmental Policy
Economic analysis of environmental problems often requires us to evaluate policies with very long run, highly uncertainty consequences. This course covers developments in the theory of intertemporal choice and choice under uncertainty and their applications in environmental economics. Topics include social discounting, intergenerational ethics, precautionary policies, learning, ambiguity, and catastrophic risks.
