Focusing on the micro-behavioral economics of global warming, the book introduces the Geographically-scaled Micro econometric model of Adapting Portfolios (G-MAP), designed to analyze responses to climatic changes. It applies this model to decision-making in agricultural and natural resource sectors across Sub-Saharan Africa and South America. The author outlines five specific applications of G-MAP, including its relevance to animal species, agricultural systems, natural resource enterprises, climate risk assessment, and public adaptation strategies.
