The study notes that implementing climate change policies is challenging due to political opposition. The paper highlights the difficulty of translating a scientific consensus on climate change into public policies. The study acknowledges the challenge of estimating the effect of a hurricane hitting a district at time t-1 due to the lack of recorded hurricanes between 2012 and 2015.
