Will Skycrapers Save the Planet? Building Height Limits and Urban Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Borck, Rainald - 2021

This paper studies the effectiveness of building height limits as a policy to limit greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It shows that building height limits lead to urban sprawl and higher emissions from commuting. On the other hand, aggregate housing consumption may decrease which reduces emissions...

Kyoto and Carbon Leakage : An Empirical Analysis of the Carbon Content of Bilateral Trade

Aichele, Rahel; Felbermayr, Gabriel J. - 2021

Has the Kyoto Protocol induced carbon leakage? We conduct the first empirical ex-post evaluation of the Protocol. We derive a theoretical gravity equation for the CO2 content of trade, which accounts for intermediate inputs, both domestic and imported. The structure of our new panel database of...

Can a Unilateral Carbon Tax Reduce Emissions Elsewhere?

Elliott, Joshua - 2013

One country that tries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions may fear that other countries get a competitive advantage and increase emissions (“leakage”). Estimates from computable general equilibrium (CGE) models such as Elliott et al (2010a,b) indicate that 15% to 25% of abatement might be...
