Health-Enhancing Activities and the Environment : How Competition for Resources Make the Environmental Policy Beneficial

Pautrel, Xavier - 2010

In a two-period overlapping generations model, this paper demonstrates that the relationship between environmental taxation and economic activity (output level and output growth) becomes inverted-U shaped when the detrimental impact of pollution on health and the private decision of each...

Environment, Health and Labor Market

Pautrel, Xavier - 2020

We re-examine the impact of environmental taxation on health and output, in the presence of labor market frictions. Our main findings are that matching process and wage bargaining introduce new channels of transmission of environmental taxation on the economy such that assuming perfect labor...

Environmental Policy, Education and Growth with Finite Lifetime : The Role of Abatement Technology

Pautrel, Xavier - 2010

This note shows that the assumptions about the abatement technology modify the impact of the environmental taxation (both the size and the “direction”) on the long-run growth driven by human capital accumulation à la Lucas (1988), when the source of pollution is private consumption and...

Adaptation, Mitigation and 'Green' R&D to Combat Global Climate Change. Insights from an Empirical Integrated Assessment Exercise

Bosello, Francesco - 2015

This work develops a framework for the analysis at the macro-level of the relationship between adaptation and mitigation policies. The FEEM-RICE growth model with stock pollution, endogenous R&D investment and emission abatement is enriched with a planned-adaptation module where a defensive...

Second Best Environmental Policies under Uncertainty

Antoniou, Fabio; Hatzipanayotou, Panos; Koundouri, Phoebe - 2010

We construct a strategic trade model of an international duopoly, whereby production by exporting firms generates a local pollutant. Governments use environmental policies, i.e., an emissions standard or a tax, to control pollution and for rent shifting purposes. Contrary to their firm, however,...

Tradable Permits vs. Ecological Dumping

Antoniou, Fabio; Hatzipanayotou, Panos; Koundouri, Phoebe - 2010

In this paper we examine an alternative policy scenario, where governments allow polluting firms to trade permits in a strategic environmental policy model. We demonstrate, among other things, that with no market power in the permits market, governments of the exporting firms do not have an...

Pollution, Health and Life Expectancy : How Environmental Policy Can Promote Growth

Pautrel, Xavier - 2007

This article investigates the influence of environmental policy on growth assuming that the channel of transmission relies on the link between pollution, health and the survival probability, in an overlapping generations model à la Blanchard (1985) where growth is driven by a mechanism à la...
