We study the effect of a subtle change in the choice architecture on offsetting behavior. In a large-scale field experiment, we examine repeated voluntary contributions to a carbon offsetting program during the online purchase of long-distance bus tickets. In the control group, travelers had the...

The aim of this paper is to enunciate a new way to estimate levelized cost of electric energy (LCOE), considering emission of greenhouse gases cost, by taking the theoretical cost of avoiding pollution as the emission cost. In this way, it would be comparable LCOE from different sources of...

Using a choice experiment, we investigated preferences for distributing the economic burden of decreasing CO2 emissions in the two largest CO2-emitting countries: the United States and China. We asked respondents about their preferences for four burden-sharing rules to reduce CO2 emissions...
