Scenarios of carbon dioxide emissions from aviation
Mayor, Karen (contributor); Tol, Richard S. J. (contributor) - 2008
We use a model of international and domestic tourist numbers and flows to forecast tourist numbers and emissions from … international tourism out to 2100. We find that between 2005 and 2100 international tourism grows by a factor of 12. Not only do … people take more trips but these also increase in length. We find that the growth in tourism is mainly fuelled by an increase …

The direct impact of climate change on regional labour productivity
Kjellström, Tord; Kovats, R. Sari; Lloyd, Simon J.; … - 2008
Global climate change will increase outdoor and indoor heat loads, and may impair health and productivity for millions of working people. This study applies physiological evidence about effects of heat, climate guidelines for safe work environments, climate modelling and global distributions of...

Fuel poverty in Ireland : extent, affected groups and policy issues
Scott, Susan; Lyons, Sean; Keane, Claire; McCarthy, Donald - 2008
This paper provides updated estimates for the scale of fuel poverty in the Republic of Ireland using two measures: one based on fuel expenditure as a share of income and the other based on self-reported deprivation. It also presents modelling results as to the characteristics of households most...

The impact of climate policy on private car ownership in Ireland
Hennessy, Hugh; Tol, Richard S. J. - 2010
We construct a model of the stock of private cars in the Republic of Ireland. The model distinguishes cars by fuel, engine size and age. The modelled car stock is build up from a long history of data on sales, and calibrated to recent data on actual stock. We complement the data on the number of...

The uncertainty about the total economic impact of climate change
Tol, Richard S. J. - 2011
This paper uses a vote-counting procedure to estimate the probability density function of the total economic impact as a parabolic function of global warming. There is a wide range of uncertainty about the impact of climate change up to 3°C, and the information becomes progressively more...
