This paper analyzes stochastic productive pollution within a model of endogenous growth. The extent to which the agents … perceive their individual influence on aggregate pollution is parameterized. Recursive preferences allow for the separation … stochastic pollution tax, which is uncorrelated with the technological uncertainty of pollution, is compared with a pure …

This paper presents a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model for the analysis of environmental policies towards mining activities, and shows for the case of South Africa how it can be implemented numerically. The CGE model belongs to the class of static, trade-focussed models along the lines...

This paper shows in an empirical context that substantial cost reductions can be achieved in the implementation of Dutch national climate policy by (i) targeting the policy at the stock of greenhouse gases, thus allowing polluters flexibility in their timing of emission reductions; and (ii)...

Political feasibility of emission trading systems may crucially depend on the free initial allocation of emission allowances to energy-intensive industries in order to ameliorate adverse production and employment effects. We investigate the potential trade-off between such compensation and...

In a second step, it investigates the effect … of pollution on economic growth under the assumption that pollution intensities are related to technological progress …. Several conclusions emerge from the model. In equilibrium, the economy follows a balanced growth path. The effect of pollution …
