Emissions pricing to stabilize global climate
Bosetti, Valentina; Paltsev, Sergey V.; Reilly, John M.; … - 2011
In the absence of significant greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation, many analysts project that atmospheric concentrations of species identified for control in the Kyoto protocol could exceed 1000 ppm (carbon-dioxide-equivalent) by 2100 from the current levels of about 435 ppm. This could lead to...

Clean and dirty international technology diffusion
Bosetti, Valentina; Verdolini, Elena - 2013
This paper investigates the role of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) protection and Environmental Policies (EPs) on clean (renewable) and dirty (fossil-based) technology diffusion from top-innovators. IPR protection and EPs are extensively debated policy tools, as IPR protection addresses...

Is environmentalism the right strategy to decarbonize the world?
Marini, Marco; Tarola, Ornella; Thisse, Jacques-François - 2020
We study how the supply of environmentalism, which is defined by psychic benefits (costs) associated with the purchase of high-environmental (low-environmental) qualities, affects the way firms choose their products and the ensuing consequences for the global level of pollution. Contrary to...

Delayed participation of developing countries to climate agreements: should action in the EU and US be postponed?
Bosetti, Valentina; Carraro, Carlo; Tavoni, Massimo - 2008
This paper analyses the cost implications for climate policy in developed countries if developing countries are unwilling to adopt measures to reduce their own GHG emissions. First, we assume that a 450 CO2 (550 CO2e) ppmv stabilisation target is to be achieved and that Non Annex1 (NA1)...

Global climate policy architecture and political feasibility: specific formulas and emission targets to attain 460 ppm CO2 concentrations
Bosetti, Valentina; Frankel, Jeffrey A. - 2009
Three gaps in the Kyoto Protocol most badly need to be filled: the absence of emission targets extending far into the future, the absence of participation by the United States, China, and other developing countries, and the absence of reason to think that members will abide by commitments. To be...

Politics and economics of second-best regulation of greenhouse gases : the importance of regulatory credibility
Bosetti, Valentina; Victor, David G. - 2010
Modellers have examined a wide array of ideal-world scenarios for regulation of greenhouse gases. In this ideal world …”—which has a strikingly small impact on total world cost of carbon regulations if international trade in emission credits allows … another factor that analysts have largely ignored: credibility. In the real world governments find it difficult to craft and …

Sustainable cooperation in global climate policy : specific formulas and emission targets to build on Copenhagen and Cancun
Bosetti, Valentina; Frankel, Jeffrey A. - 2011
We offer a framework to assign quantitative allocations of emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs), across countries, one budget period at a time. Under the two-part plan: (i) China, India, and other developing countries accept targets at Business as Usual (BAU) in the coming budget period, the...
