We construct a two-country model where pollution from production is transmitted across borders. Pollution abatement is …

Preserving environmental quality and addressing economic inequality both feature prominently in public discourse. Neither of these two issues can be fully understood in isolation, and policies aiming at one issue will increasingly have to consider interactions with the other. We synthesize...

We provide ex-post empirical analysis of the effects of climate policies on carbon dioxide emissions at the aggregate national level. Our results are based on a comprehensive database of 121 countries. As climate policies we examine carbon taxes and emissions trading systems (ETS), as well as...

We build a two regions general equilibrium model with cross-border pollution and either international or only inter …-regional capital mobility. To control pollution each region uses public pollution abatement and issues either intra-regionally or inter … emission permits and we examine when and how cross-border pollution and the type of capital mobility affect these equilibrium …
