The environmental Kuznets curve and sustainability : a panel data analysis

Farhani, Sahbi; Mrizak, Sana; Chaibi, Anissa; Rault, … - 2014

In recent years, sustainability has represented one of the most important policy goals explored in the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) literature. But related hypotheses, performance measures and results continue to present a challenge. The present paper contributes to this ongoing literature...

Strategic approaches to CO2 emissions : the case of the cement industry and of the chemical industry

Arjaliès, Diane Laure; Goubet, Cécile; Ponssard, … - 2014

The ability of companies to turn an environmental constraint into a source of strategic opportunities is a controversial topic in published research. The article, which is based on a comparative study of the CO2 emission reduction strategies implemented by the cement and chemical industries,...

Regulating stock externalities

Gerlagh, Reyer; Heijmans, Roweno - 2018

We develop a dynamic regulation game for a stock externality under asymmetric information and future market uncertainty. Within this framework, regulation is characterized as the implementation of a welfare-maximization program conditional on informational constraints. We identify the most...

Economic growth and pollutant emissions : new panel evidence from the Union for the Mediterranean countries

Abdeljelil, Mouna Ben; Rault, Christophe; Belaïd, Fateh - 2023

This paper investigates the existence of an environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) and its robustness for 28 countries of the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) over the recent period. Our methodology relies on four recent estimation methods for non-stationary panel data and includes four pollutants...

Multiple pollutants, uncovered sectors, and suboptimal environmental policies

Fullerton, Don; Karney, Dan - 2014

In our analytical general equilibrium model where two polluting inputs can be substitutes or complements in production, we study the effects of a tax on one pollutant in two cases: one where both pollutants face taxes and the second where the other pollutant is subject to a permit policy. In...

Airline fuel usage and carbon emissions : determining factors

Brueckner, Jan K.; Abreu, Chrystyane - 2016

Using annual data on individual US airlines over the 1995-2015 period, this paper presents regression results relating an airline's total fuel usage to seven variables: the available ton miles of capacity (passengers plus freight and mail) provided by the airline; the average seat capacity of its...

Emission permits and public pollution abatement : can decentralized environmental policies be efficient?

Tsakiris, Nikos; Hatzipanayotou, Panos; Michael, Michael S. - 2015

We build a two regions general equilibrium model with cross-border pollution and either international or only inter …-regional capital mobility. To control pollution each region uses public pollution abatement and issues either intra-regionally or inter … emission permits and we examine when and how cross-border pollution and the type of capital mobility affect these equilibrium …
