Sustainable Cooperation in Global Climate Policy: Specific Formulas and Emission Targets to Build on Copenhagen and Cancun

Bosetti, Valentina; Frankel, Jeffrey - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 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...

The Stability of Exchange Networks

Dogan, Gönül; Assen, M.A.L.M. van; Rijt, Arnout van de; … - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2007

Equity Weighting and the Marginal Damage Costs of Climate Change

Anthoff, David; Hepburn, Cameron; Tol, Richard S.J. - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2007

development. Equity-weighted estimates of the (marginal) impact of greenhouse gas emissions reflect these differences. Equity …-weighted estimates of the marginal damage cost of carbon dioxide emissions are substantially higher than estimates without equity …-weights; equity-weights may also change the sign of the social cost estimates. Equity weights need to be normalised. Our estimates …
