The possibility of carbon leakage arises when there is an asymmetry in climate policies across countries. A Border Carbon Adjustment (BCA) and a Border Tax Adjustment (BTA) are considered effective instruments to tackle this leakage. Using the Melitz trade model with firm heterogeneity, we study...

International differences in fuel taxation are huge, and may be justified by different local negative externalities that taxes must correct, as well as by different preferences for public spending. In this context, should a worldwide unique carbon tax be added to these local taxes to correct the...

We study the optimal extraction of two non-renewable resources when extraction costs depend on cumulative previous extraction. We first define a complete user cost of natural resources, including environmental damages, which allows us to greatly simplify the resolution. This framework is applied...

This paper studies the maximin paths of the canonical Dasgupta-Heal-Solow model when the stock of natural capital is a direct argument of well-being, besides consumption. Hartwick's rule then appears as an efficient tool to characterize solutions in a variety of settings. We start with the case...

This paper studies the undiscounted utilitarian optimal paths of the canonical Dasgupta--Heal--Solow model when the stock of natural capital is a direct argument of well-being, besides consumption. We use a Keynes--Ramsey rule which yields a generalization of Hartwick's rule. We characterize...

Following Stollery [1998], we extend the Solow, Dasgupta-Heal model to analyze the effects of global warning. The rise of temperature is caused by the use of fossil resources so that the temperature level can be linked to the remaining stock of these resources. The riise of temperature affects...

This paper studies the undiscounted utilitarian optimal paths of the canonical Dasgupta-Heal-Solow model when the stock of natural capital is a direct argument of well-being, besides consumption. We use a Keynes-Ramsey rule wich yields a generalization of Hartwick's rule : if society has a zero...
