Climate – When Economic Models Become Fiction

Two people stand back-to-back, one a rural farmer in flooded rice fields under heavy rain and the other a uniformed worker on a burning, cracked road, with a torn world map behind them symbolizing global climate inequality.

The latest actuarial-style assessment from the University of Exeter’s Green Futures Solutions team and financial think tank Carbon Tracker argues that the tools steering global climate policy are fundamentally misreading the danger ahead. Economic “damage functions” embedded in widely used models treat climate change as a marginal adjustment to an otherwise smoothly growing economy, rather than as a system‑shaping force capable of triggering structural decline.

The infographic dramatizes how the EU‑Mercosur saga became a textbook case of “institutional quicksand,” turning what could have been a decade of accelerated growth into a lost opportunity for both sides. On the left, the 2015 “what if” path mirrors the article’s counterfactual scenario: a more federal, agile EU striking an early deal, locking in strategic primacy in South America, faster tariff elimination, and privileged access to critical raw materials long before China emerged as Mercosur’s dominant economic partner.
