| Summary: | Policymakers in developing countries
face multiple challenges related to climate change. To
provide policymakers with reliable recommendations on a
variety of climate related policies, the WBG has a diverse
and complementary set of models. The analytics range from
evaluating the aggregate, sectoral, and welfare effects of
mitigation measures to assessing country-specific adaptation
needs, considering the impacts of extreme weather events as
well as gradual global warming. Key indicators include
macroeconomic outcomes, sectoral indicators, co-benefits and
poverty and distributional issues. This report summarizes
the range of climate and development issues addressed by
each model in the WBG suite, revealing both strengths and
limitations of individual models, as well as the
complementarity among models. |
