Why is pollution from US manufacturing declining? : the roles of trade, regulation, productivity, and preferences
Shapiro, Joseph S.; Walker, Reed - 2015
, environmental regulation, productivity, and consumer preferences have contributed to these reductions in pollution emissions. We … estimate the model's key parameters using administrative data on plant-level production and pollution decisions. We then … pollution changes. Finally, we compare the model-driven decomposition to a statistical decomposition. The model and data suggest …

Decomposing the impact of population growth on environmental deterioration
Gans, Oskar; Jöst, Frank - 2005
The IPAT-model developed by Ehrlich and Holdren is widespread in ecological economics in order to quantify the impact of population growth on environmental deterioration. We comment on this model and extensions proposed by several authors from a theoretical and empirical point of view.

Environmental and population externalities
Jöst, Frank; Quaas, Martin - 2006
In this paper, we investigate the external effects of the parent's decisions on the number of newly born children and the firm's decisions on the amount of polluting emissions that occur in industrial production. We employ an optimal control model which comprises three stock variables...
