At the World Economic Forum in Davos last week, an entire day was spent on the threat of climate change, not just to cor- porate coff ers, but also to national economies. Third World countries, where many global corporations employ thousands of low-paid workers, see huge risks to their future welfare as the Earth heats up. Economists have joined the chorus, with some seeing a carbon tax on greenhouse-gas emitters as a solution. Henry Paulson Jr., a former Treasury secretary in the George W. Bush administration, has linked up with former Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, among others, to com- mission an economic study on the financial risks connect- ed to climate change. The study will assess potential impacts of warming by region and sector of the U.S. economy. But climate change is not just about warming trends. It’s also about extreme weather cycles. Consider the bitter- ly frigid temperatures that have gripped the Upper Midwest and New England states this winter, crippling routine business transactions, closing schools and hiking heating costs. And hea t-induced extremes make typical flooding, with which low-lying regions like coastal Florida are accustomed dealing, longer, more catastrophic events. Meanwhile, two growing economies - in China and India - are importing coal and oil, much of it from the , and building more coal- and oil-fueled power plants by the week.
