Digital Connectivity as Climate Policy? Anna Kanduth, Sangeeta Lalli, Matthew Mendelsohn, Scott Ross

Improved digital connectivity has the potential to empower emissions reductions and support climate resilience. The “internet of things” and sensors, if well designed and carefully employed, will be critical components of lowering greenhouse gas emissions in agriculture and natural resources, electricity grids, and homes and buildings. In addition, as climate-related disasters become more frequent, digital connectivity has become the essential service driving emergency responses, community mobilization, protection, and recovery. Do our current climate policies produce the right economic and market-based incentives to generate these connectivity improvements, or do we need additional policies to get there? If so, which ones?
