In this paper, we examine the time-varying tail risks transmission among the agricultural, precious metals, and energy commodities markets, and explore how climate change concerns affect this connectedness. Using the Conditional Autoregressive Value-at-Risk (CAViaR) model and the time-varying parameter vector autoregressive (TVP-VAR) connectedness model, our empirical analysis reveals several key findings. First, our tail risk-based approach shows that tail risks transmission rises during crisis periods such as the GFC of 2007 and the Covid period of 2020. Second, climate risks, in particular climate transitions risks, play an important role in commodity tail risk connectedness. These findings are important for investors, practitioners, and policymakers. Our results are robust to a number of robustness tests.
