ECO481H1F Special Topics in Economics with Data Analytics: Climate Economics

Pairing real economic and geospatial datasets with economic modeling tools and principles of climate science, we will consider how heat, sea level rise, groundwater depletion, and precipitation, will impact society through agriculture, industry, trade, health, and more, in a changing climate. This is a developing field, and few predictions can be made with great certainty. This course will begin to delineate what is currently known, and how progress can be made. In a final project, students will apply real data and modern modeling tools to a climate question of their choice.
