TL;DR: In this article, a review of existing cost assessment approaches for natural hazard risks is presented, where the authors consider droughts, floods, coastal and Alpine hazards, and examine different cost types, namely direct tangible damages, losses due to business interruption, indirect damages, and the costs of risk mitigation.

Water footprint scenarios for 2050: a global analysis.
TL;DR: It is showed that reducing humanity's water footprint to sustainable levels is possible even with increasing populations, provided that consumption patterns change, and can help to guide corrective policies at both national and international levels.

The economic impact of more sustainable water use in agriculture: A computable general equilibrium analysis
Alvaro Calzadilla,Katrin Rehdanz,Katrin Rehdanz,Katrin Rehdanz,Richard S.J. Tol,Richard S.J. Tol +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of green and blue water resources in agriculture and within the context of international trade is investigated based on the global general equilibrium model GTAP-W, and the results indicate that there is a clear trade-off between economic welfare and environmental sustainability.

Environmental Scarcities and Violent Conflict: Evidence from Cases
TL;DR: Within the next fifty years, the planet's human population will probably pass nine billion, and global economic output may quintuple Largely as a result, scarcities of renewable resources will increase sharply The total area of high-quality agricultural land will drop, as will the extent of forests and the number of species they sustain this paper.
