(2) “does not provide conclusive evidence for increasing damages due to rising climate extreme intensity but likely reports trends in capital coefficients” and advocate the use of capital stock (CS) instead of gross domestic product (GDP) as a control variable. First, we note that Coronese et al. (2) document a sharp increase in the economic damages of extreme natural disasters that is consistent with a climate change signal, but do … [↵][1]1To whom correspondence may be addressed.
