Although there are economists who may argue that global climate change has little impact on our economy today‚ there is strong evidence that ignorance on this topic will lead to a financial hole in the long run. In order to gain awareness on this stagnant approach‚ Frank Ackerman and Jonathan M. Harris analyze economic climate change in their articles. Some of these topics regarding economic climate change include the monetary impact that climate change will have on future generations‚ the impact

In particular‚ the automobile industry is under pressure to take a close look at its product carbon footprint. Managing the downstream consequences of the use of its products and inputs from upstream suppliers is critical for developing carbon risk-mitigated supply chain management. This paper is of benefit to academics and managers by providing a new way to integrate carbon emissions in supply

CO2 Emissions Analysis and Suggestions The increasing of greenhouse gases which originated from anthropogenic activities is one of the biggest challenges we face today. It will enhance the global warming and cause many climate problems (National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory‚ 2008). One of the major greenhouse gases is carbon dioxide (CO2)‚ and the major emissions of CO2 are come from the combustion of fossil fuels in power generation‚ transport and industrial sectors (Figure
