Total Factor Productivity Growth and the Environment : A Case for Green Growth Accounting
Xepapadeas, Anastasios; Tzouvelekas, Vangelis; Vouvaki, … - 2014
We examine whether the use of the environment, proxied by CO2 emissions, as a factor of production contributes, in addition to conventional factors of production to output growth, and thus it should be accounted for in total factor productivity growth (TFPG) measurement and deducted from the...

Clean and productive? : evidence from the German manufacturing industry
Böhringer, Christoph; Moslener, Ulf; Oberndorfer, Ulrich; … - 2008
We analyze the productivity effects of environmental (green) investment as well as of environmental expenditures and energy expenditures. For this purpose, we follow a production function approach where we account for these investment and expenditure categories as inputs. Based on a panel...

Total factor productivity growth when factors of production generate environmental externalities
Xepapadeas, Anastasios; Vouvaki, Dimitra - 2009
Total factor productivity growth (TFPG) has been traditionally associated with technological change. We show that when a factor of production, such as energy, generates an environmental externality in the form of CO2 emissions which is not internalized because of lack of environmental policy,...

Regulating the environmental consequences of preferences for social status within an evolutionary framework
Sartzetakis, Eftichios Sofokles; Xepapadeas, Anastasios; … - 2015
Taking as given that we are consuming too much and that overconsumption leads to environmental degradation, the present paper examines the regulator's choices between informative advertisement and consumption taxation. We model overconsumption by considering individuals that care about social...

Optimal emission pricing in the presence of international spillovers : decomposing leakage and terms-of-trade motives
Böhringer, Christoph; Lange, Andreas; Rutherford, Thomas F. - 2012
Carbon leakage provides an efficiency argument for unilateral climate policy to differentiate emission prices in favor of emission-intensive and trade-exposed sectors. At the same time, differential emission pricing can be (mis-)used as a beggar-thy-neighbor policy to exploit terms of trade....
