Carbon dioxide removal from the atmosphere is becoming an important option to achieve net zero climate targets. This paper develops a welfare and public economics perspective on optimal policies for carbon removal and storage in non-permanent sinks like forests, soil, oceans, wood products or...

This report estimates that government consumption and investment are responsible for at least 12 percent of German greenhouse gas emissions, mostly arising from the provision of public services and construction. Climate-friendly Green Public Procurement (GPP), which takes into account the carbon...

Nach Schätzungen des vorliegenden Berichts sind staatliche Käufe für mindestens zwölf Prozent der deutschen Treibhausgasemissionen verantwortlich. Diese entstehen vor allem im Zuge der Bereitstellung öffentlicher Dienstleistungen und von Bauinvestitionen. Durch umweltfreundliche...

We analyze how conventional emissions trading schemes (ETS) can be modified by introducing ”clean-up certificates” to allow for a phase of net-negative emissions. Clean-up certificates bundle the permission to emit CO2 with the obligation for its removal. We show that demand for such...
