Carbon boards and transition risk: explicit and implicit exposure implications for total stock returns and dividend payouts
Mazzarano, Matteo; Guastella, Gianni; Pareglio, Stefano; … - 2021
The Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) has considered climate change as a risk issue since 2010. Several emission … financial performances, especially of listed companies. There are two ways these companies can disclose their transition risk … exposure and are not alternatives. One is the explicit declaration of exposure to transition risk in the legally binding …

European-led climate policy versus global mitigation action : implications on trade, technology, and energy
De Cian, Enrica; Keppo, Ilkka; Bollen, Johannes; … - 2014
This paper examines how changes in an international climate regime would affect the European decarbonization strategy and costs through the mechanisms of trade, technology, and innovation. We present the results from the Energy Modeling Forum (EMF) model comparison study on European climate...

The politics of market linkage : linking domestic climate policies with international political economy
Green, Jessica F.; Sterner, Thomas; Wagner, Gernot - 2014
After twenty years of global negotiations, the world is still far from a comprehensive climate agreement. The "top-down" approach embodied by the Kyoto Protocol has all but stalled, chiefly due to disagreements over levels of ambition and objections to financial transfers. To avoid those...

Economic implications of EU mitigation policies : domestic and international effects
Bosello, Francesco; Davide, Marinella; Alloisio, Isabella - 2016
The EU has a consolidated climate and energy regulation: it played a pioneering role by adopting a wide range of climate change policies and establishing the first regional Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS). These policies, however, raise several concerns regarding both their environmental...

Cooperation and competition in climate change policies : mitigation and climate engineering when countries are asymmetric
Manoussi, Vassiliki; Xepapadeas, Anastasios - 2014
We study a dynamic game of climate policy design in terms of emissions and solar radiation management (SRM) involving two heterogeneous regions or countries. Countries emit greenhouse gasses (GHGs), and can block incoming radiation by unilateral SRM activities, thus reducing global temperature....

Carbon storage and bioenergy : using forests for climate mitigation
Favero, Alice; Mendelsohn, Robert O.; Sohngen, Brent - 2016
The carbon mitigation literature has separately considered using forests to store carbon and as a source of bioenergy. In this paper, we look at both options to reach a 2°C mitigation target. This paper combines the global forest model, GTM, with the IAM WITCH model to study the optimal use of...

Modeling coupled climate, ecosystems, and economic systems
Brock, William A.; Xepapadeas, Anastasios - 2015
Human economies and ecosystems form a coupled system coevolving in time and space, since human economies use ecosystems services and at the same time affect ecosystems through their production and consumption activities. The study of the interactions between human economies and ecosystems is...

Decarbonization of Costa Rica's agriculture, forestry and other land uses sectors : an application of the IEEM+ESM approach
Banerjee, Onil; Cicowiez, Martín; Vargas, Renato; … - 2021
This paper evaluates the economic and environmental impacts of implementing Costa Ricas Decarbonization Plan, focusing specifically on the Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Uses (AFOLU) sectors. To do so, we apply the Integrated Economic-Environmental Modeling (IEEM) framework for Costa Rica,...

Optimal carbon dioxide removal in face of ocean carbon sink feedback
Manoussi, Vassiliki; Shayegh, Soheil; Tavoni, Massimo - 2017
Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is a potentially important climate strategy for attaining low climate stabilization objectives. However, climate analysis has indicated a possible weakening of the ocean carbon sinks -the largest in the world- in relation to CDR deployment. Here, we provide an...

How the nature of inequality reduction matters for CO2 emissions
Angel, Tobias; Berthe, Alexandre; Costantini, Valeria; … - 2024
This study investigates the relationship between distinct types of inequality and CO2 emissions using panel data on 156 countries from 1995 to 2020. Using fixed effects panel and quantile regression techniques, we report estimates that indicate that pre-distribution (inequality reduction by...
