Die Dissertation fokussiert auf suboptimale, aber politisch realistische(re) Klimaschutzmassnahmen. Sie benutzt analytische und kalibrierte numerische Modelle, um das Grüne Paradoxon, CO2 leakage und die Frage zwischen einer preislichen (CO2-Steuern) und einer mengenmässigen...

Cumulative emissions drive peak global warming and determine the safe carbon budget compatible with staying below 2oC or 1.5oC. The safe carbon budget is lower if uncertainty about the transient climate response is high and risk tolerance low. Together with energy costs this budget determines...

A cap on global warming implies a tighter carbon budget which can be enforced with a credible second-best renewable energy subsidy designed to lock up fossil fuel and curb cumulative emissions. Such a subsidy brings forward the end of the fossil fuel era, but accelerates fossil fuel extraction...

We study climate change in a model with a carbon-intensive and a green sector, each subject to stochastic productivity shocks, and show how the underlying economic structure affects the risk-adjusted discount rate and the climate risk premium in the social cost of carbon (SCC). Consumption...
