Population Under a Cap on Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Bohn, Henning - 2013
A cap on greenhouse gas emissions makes total emissions a fixed common-property resource. Population increases under a cap are therefore self-limiting: a population increase raises labor and reduces emissions per unit of labor, which lowers incomes and fertility. Because a marginal birth under a...

Driving Factors of Carbon Dioxide Emissions and the Impact from Kyoto Protocol
Grunewald, Nicole; Martínez-Zarzoso, Inmaculada - 2021
In the last two decades increasing attention has been paid to the relationship between environmental degradation and economic development. According to the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis this relationship may be described by an inverted-U curve. However, recent evidence rejects the...

Delayed Participation of Developing Countries to Climate Agreements : Should Action in the EU and US be Postponed?
Bosetti, Valentina - 2015
This paper analyses the cost implications for climate policy in developed countries if developing countries are unwilling to adopt measures to reduce their own GHG emissions. First, we assume that a 450 CO2 (550 CO2e) ppmv stabilisation target is to be achieved and that Non Annex1 (NA1)...

What drives changes in carbon emissions? : an index decomposition approach for 40 countries
Schymura, Michael; Voigt, Sebastian - 2014
This study analyzes carbon emission trends and drivers in 40 major economies using the WIOD database, a harmonized and consistent dataset of input-output table time series accompanied by environmental satellite data. We use logarithmic mean Divisia index decomposition to (1) study trends in...

Carbon Emissions Scenarios in Europe Based on an Endogenous Growth Model
Ciesielski, Anna - 2014
Carbon dioxide emissions are a major force driving climate change. We construct scenarios of CO2 emissions from fossil energy until 2100 in Europe. Major innovations are first that economic growth is based on an endogenous economic growth model and second that we calibrate our model to...
