Une analyse économique qui a remporté les plus hautes distinctions et engendré des adeptes influents a aggravé la menace du changement climatique, explique Steve Keen.

While climate scientists warn that climate change could be catastrophic, economists such as 2018 Nobel prize winner William Nordhaus assert that it will be nowhere near as damaging. In a 2018 paper published after he was awarded the prize, Nordhaus claimed that 3°C of warming would reduce global GDP by just 2.1%, compared to what it would be in the total absence of climate change.
