Future emissions of trace gases are intrinsically linked to economic growth and abatement policies, which in turn, are … governed by expectations of greenhouse damages. Trace gas indices that depend upon future emissions can be calculated either on … the basis of emissions scenarios, such as those devised by the IPCC, or using optimal control techniques where the trade …

Starting from CO2 emissions data collected during both the production phase and during the lifetime of cars and trucks …, we argue that impressive opportunities to reduce emissions can be found in the consumption phase. It is however obvious … that energy taxes alone will not lead to a strong reduction of transport emissions. New instruments that stimulate …
