Income-dependent expansion of electricity demand for climate change adaptation in Brazil

Preface: Celebrating the 100th anniversary of chemical sciences in Nanjing University

“…In summary, our results demonstrate clear inequality in the extent to which urban green spaces cool cities and their denizens between the Global North and South. Much attention has been paid to the global inequality of indoor heat adaptation arising from the inequality of resources (e.g., less affordable air conditioning and more frequent power shortage in the Global South) [49][50][51][52] . Our results suggest that the inequality of outdoor adaptation is at least equally concerning, particularly given that Global South urban populations are growing most rapidly is compounded by the fact that future temperature extremes are likely to be greatest in the Global South 16,53 .…”

Temperature and convictions: evidence from India

“…13 We choose to use the ERA reanalysis dataset because high-resolution observational data on relative humidity is not available for India. However, numerous previous economic studies have used the ERA reanalysis data in contexts that include India (Colmer, 2021;Heyes and Saberian, 2022;Colelli et al, 2023), the U.S. (Hogan and Schlenker, 2023), Europe (Holtermann, 2020), and global analysis (Burke and Tanutama, 2019). Of these studies, several demonstrate that their results are robust to using either reanalysis or observational data (Burke and Tanutama, 2019;Holtermann, 2020;Colmer, 2021;Hogan and Schlenker, 2023) 14 Note that ERA5 does not provide direct information on relative humidity, but it gives information on dewpoint temperature.…”

“…Además del consabido aumento de la temperatura global del planeta, la acidificación oceánica, el aumento del nivel del mar y la hipoxia que altera vida estuarina y marina (Kibria et al, 2021), el cambio climático está amenazando los recursos de agua dulce a nivel mundial (Costa, Zhang y Levison, 2021), el suministro de elementos necesarios para la seguridad alimentaria (Khairulbahri, 2021), está alterando los patrones de ocurrencia temporal entre especies (Faust e Iler, 2022), ha producido un aumento excesivo en el consumo de electricidad en los sectores residencial y de servicio (Colelli y Mistry, 2022), entre otros.…”
