This study explores extreme dependence structure between climate risk and green markets, focusing on their diversification, hedging, and safe-haven potential. We employ a time varying optimal copula and a conditional diversification benefit between green markets and climate risk. The results exhibit a symmetric, asymmetric and tail dependence structure between climate risk and green markets. The dependence structure varies with a pair of green markets/climate risks and time periods include economic crises, climate agreement events, and climatic disasters. The green markets demonstrate the simultaneous presence of diversification, hedging, and safe-haven characteristics in response to climate change and physical risk. © 2025
