The dynamic economic behavior in most integrated assessment models linking economic growth to climate change involves a differential equation solved by Jacob Bernoulli in 1695. Using the dynamic integrated climate economy (DICE) model and freezing exogenous variables at initial values, this dynamic is shown to produce implausible projections on a 60-year time frame. If world capital started at ...

China harbors one of the most species-rich floras in the world. This plant diversity is currently severely threatened by high levels of habitat degradation and unsustainable resource extraction, the country’s exceptionally fast economic growth, an uncontrolled increase in tourism, invasive species, and climate change. Furthermore, China’s current system of protected areas is ineffective at cons...

Global freshwater resources are under increasing pressure from economic development, population growth, and climate change. The international trade of water-intensive products (e.g., agricultural commodities) or virtual water trade has been suggested as a way to save water globally. We focus on the virtual water trade network associated with international food trade built with annual trade data...

Agricultural production is sensitive to weather and thus directly affected by climate change. Plausible estimates of these climate change impacts require combined use of climate, crop, and economic models. Results from previous studies vary substantially due to differences in models, scenarios, and data. This paper is part of a collective effort to systematically integrate these three types of ...

The recently evolving global financial crisis reveals both the fragile state of the global economy and the major long-term implications of an increasingly unfair global economy for global health and human flourishing. We are also at a critical juncture in world history in relation to understanding and endeavoring to counteract the adverse effects of modern life on climate change and our natural...

INTRODUCTION Trends of prevalence, treatment, and control of hypertension have been documented in the U.S., but changes in medical expenditures associated with hypertension over time have not been evaluated. This study analyzed these expenditures during 2000-2013 among U.S. adults. METHODS Data from the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey were analyzed in 2016. The study population was non-insti...

Natural disturbance processes are affected by both forest management and climate change. The resulting shifts in natural disturbance processes can have profound impact on the secondary successional pathways of British Columbia forest types (Ran & Swift 2013). Building an understanding of how these systems work and their potential changes over time and space is important since many forest manage...

Organic agriculture in Colombia has the potential to transform the Colombian agricultural landscape, provide sustainable and dignified livelihoods mainly for small rural growers, peasants and indigenous communities across the nation. These communities are usually located in large rural reserve areas, native forests or in available fallow land. As a tropical country with abundant natural resourc...

The interaction of climate and development threatens to create a paradox: economic development could accelerate climate change, which in turn could block further development, locking the world into existing patterns of inequality as the natural environment deteriorates. The solution to this paradox is far from obvious. What analytical tools are needed to chart a path that leads toward sustainab...
