Global Climate Changes as a Risk Factor for Russian Economy: Methodological Issues
Abstract
Significant climate changes caused by global processes are forecasted in the territory of Russia. In this regard the actual topic is consideration of the respective risks, which may be related not only to direct negative action of this factor but also adaptation to it and inaccurate forecasts. The offered procedure for the estimation of climate risks for Russian economy shows that they are relatively small or moderate, reaching peak levels in the central and siberian federal districts. When using information about risks in strategic planning, it’s important to keep in mind that often they are defined not by the intensity of the expected climate changes but the state of the territorial economic systems.
