Carbon adjustment mechanisms: Empirics, design and caveats
Garnadt, Niklas; Grimm, Veronika; Reuter, Wolf Heinrich - 2020
This article explores the design of Carbon Adjustment Mechanisms based on an analysis of historical data, the existing literature as well as theoretical considerations. In the empirical analysis we quantify territorial emissions as compared to the CO2 footprints for countries within the EU-ETS...

Economic Globalisation and Inclusive Green Growth in Africa: Contingencies and Policy-Relevant Thresholds of Governance
Ofori, Isaac K.; Figari, Francesco - In: Sustainable Development (2022) Forthcoming, pp. --
This study employs macrodata for 23 African countries to examine whether good governance interacts with economic globalisation (EG) to foster inclusive green growth (IGG). First, the study finds that EG hampers IGG in Africa. Second, although unconditionally good governance promotes IGG, only...

Kyoto and the carbon content of trade
Aichele, Rahel; Felbermayr, Gabriel - 2010
A unilateral tax on CO2 emissions may drive up indirect carbon imports from non-committed countries, leading to carbon leakage. Using a gravity model of carbon trade, we analyze the effect of the Kyoto Protocol on the carbon content of bilateral trade. We construct a novel data set of CO2...

Políticas de comercio internacional relacionadas con el clima: Evaluación de los impactos en Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador y Perú
Cosbey, Aaron; Vogt-Schilb, Adrien - 2023
There is a growing wave of concern for the embodied carbon in traded goods. One manifestation of that concern is large economies such as the USA and the European Union enacting climate-related trade measures, including border carbon adjustment. This paper reviews more than ten climate-related...
