The major channels of impact for global climate change are through changing world food (and energy) prices, especially since all the countries under analysis are or have become net importers of oil and petroleum products and many food commodities in recent years. The impacts of local climate change decrease crop yields in the longer run and through them, productivity in the agricultu 410 0$aWorld Bank e-Library. 606 $aClimatic changes$zSyria 606 $aClimatic changes$zTunisia 606 $aClimatic changes$zYemen 606 $aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects$zSyria 606 $aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects$zTunisia 606 $aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects$zYemen 606 $aCrops and climate$xEconomic aspects$zSyria 606 $aCrops and climate$xEconomic aspects$zTunisia 606 $aCrops and climate$xEconomic aspects$zYemen 615 0$aClimatic changes 615 0$aClimatic changes 615 0$aClimatic changes 615 0$aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aClimatic changes$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aCrops and climate$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aCrops and climate$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aCrops and climate$xEconomic aspects 676 $a363.738/7409174927 701 $aVerner$b Dorte$01648918 701 $aBreisinger$b Clemens$01648919 712 02$aWorld Bank.$bMiddle East and North Africa Region.$bSustainable Development. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823912003321 996 $aEconomics of climate change in the Arab world$93997368 997 $aUNINA
