Expected biophysical impacts (such as agriculture yields, river floods, transport infrastructure losses) have been integrated into an economic model in order to assess the implications in terms of household welfare. (sciencedaily.com)
The scientists also estimate that aggressively cutting methane and soot could boost agriculture yields worldwide by almost 150 million tons and yield overall net benefits 10 times greater than the initial costs of tackling the pollutants. (innovationfiles.org)
