Climate Economics in Progress offers a global overview of the present

status of action on climate change. Drawing on the most recent data,

it analyzes the development of carbon markets in Europe and other

parts of the world. It also examines the conditions for including major

players such as China and new sectors such as agriculture, forestry

and transport in the fight against global warming. The book is essential

reading for anyone wishing to understand current advances in climate

control, which could pave the way for a new form of economic

growth.

The book was produced under the direction of Pierre-André Jouvet,

Professor at Paris-Ouest University, and Christian de Perthuis, Professor

at Paris-Dauphine University, and was written by the researchers of the

Climate Economics Chair, under the coordination of Raphaël Trotignon,

Gabriela Simonet and Virginie Boutueil.

The Climate Economics Chair is a Paris-Dauphine University and CDC-Climat

initiative, under the aegis of the Europlace Institute of Finance

research foundation. It brings together a group of researchers whose

goal is to make the link between academic research on the economics

of climate change and the implementation of operational tools,

thereby allowing the climate issue to be integrated into the functioning

of the real economy.
