Project Description
Summary:
View help for Summary
With newly available data, I investigate to what extent countries'
international trade exploits the very uneven water resources on a
global scale. I find that water is a source of comparative advantage
and that relatively water abundant countries export more water-intensive products. Additionally, water contributes significantly less to the pattern of exports than the traditional production factors labor and physical capital. This suggests relatively moderate disruptions
to overall trade on a global scale due to changing precipitation in
the wake of climate change.
