Global Climate Policy Architecture and Political Feasibility : Specific Formulas and Emission Targets to Attain 460 ppm CO2 Concentrations

Bosetti, Valentina - 2009

In pursuit of more aggressive environmental goals, we now advance the dates at which some countries are asked to begin cutting below BAU, within our framework. We also tinker with the values for the parameters in the formulas. The resulting target paths for emissions are run through the WITCH...

Unilateral Measures and Emissions Mitigation

Chatterji, Shurojit - 2009

We discuss global climate mitigation that builds on existing unilateral measures to cut emissions. We document and discuss the rationale for such unilateral measures argue that such measures have the potential to generate positive spillover effects both within and across countries. In a simple...

An Elaborated Global Climate Policy Architecture : Specific Formulas and Emission Targets for All Countries in All Decades

Frankel, Jeffrey A. - 2009

This paper analyzes a detailed plan to set quantitative national limits on emissions of greenhouse gases, following along the lines of the Kyoto Protocol. It is designed to fill in the most serious gaps: the absence of targets extending as far as 2100, the absence of participation by the United...

The Social Cost of Carbon Revisited

Pindyck, Robert S. - 2016

An estimate of the social cost of carbon (SCC) is key to climate policy. But how should we estimate the SCC? A common approach is to use an integrated assessment model (IAM) to simulate time paths for the atmospheric CO2 concentration, its impact on global mean temperature, and the resulting...

Trade and the Greenhouse Gas Emissions from International Freight Transport

Cristea, Anca D. - 2011

responsible for 33 percent of world-wide trade-related emissions, and over 75 percent of emissions for major manufacturing … production emissions per dollar of exports are 16 percent below the world average, but once we include transport US emissions per … dollar exported are 59 percent above the world average. We use our data to systematically investigate whether trade inclusive …
