| dc.description | Recently public attention has turned toward the intricate interrelation between economic growth and global warming. This book focuses on this nexus but broadens the framework to study this issue. Growth is seen as global growth, which affects the global environment and climate change. Global growth, in particular high economic growth rates, implies a fast depletion of renewable and nonrenewable resources. Thus the book deals with the impact of economic growth on the environment and the effect of the exhaustive use of natural resources as well as the reverse linkage. We thus address three interconnected issues: economic growth, environment and climate change, and renewable and nonrenewable resources. These three topics and the interrelationship among them need to be treated in a unified framework. In addition, not only intertemporal resource allocation but also the eminent issues relating to intertemporal inequities, as well as policy measures to overcome them, are discussed in the book. Yet more than other literature on global warming and resources, we study those issues in the context of modern growth theory. Besides addressing important issues in those areas we also put forward a dynamic framework that allows focus on the application of solution methods for models with intertemporal behavior of economic agents. | - |
