Climate Change Economics (CCE) is a new journal, devoted to the economics of climate change.

Edited by Robert Mendelsohn (Yale University, USA), the journal publishes theoretical and empirical papers devoted to analyses of mitigation, adaptation, impacts, policy and management of greenhouse gases. CCE is specifically devoted to papers in economics, examining the issue at every scale from local to global, and papers from around the world are encouraged.

As greenhouse gas concentrations continue to rise, the urgency of finding effective solutions will only increase over time. Further, as research is devoted to this topic, it is inevitably true that our understanding of the problem will evolve over time.
Climate Change Economics seeks to be the place where interested readers can return over time to learn the latest and most solid research on the topic. CCE will invite editorials on climate policy on a regular basis and encourage answering comments. In addition to supporting research articles, the journal is interested in being a platform on which to voice important and controversial debates surrounding climate change.

The editorial board of the journal is made of distinguished international experts in the field of climate change:
