We use Danish firm-level data to examine the causal link between carbon emissions, offshoring, and import competition …. Offshoring reduces firms' emission intensity but increases their production. Import competition reduces firms' production without … affecting their emission intensity. For Denmark, these effects imply that observed offshoring trends reduced the overall …

Carbon tariffs are one prominently discussed climate policy. The proponents stress the carbon tariffs' ability to restore competitiveness, avoid carbon leakage, and reduce world carbon emissions. We analyze the effects of carbon tariffs on trade, welfare, and carbon emissions in a structural...

Emission abatement is mainly driven by a decline in pollution emission intensity, and not by …

This study estimates the impact of carbon pricing on international trade in equipment used in the combustion of fossil fuels during the period 1995-2021. Using detailed data on bilateral trade combined with data on domestic carbon prices, we find that carbon pricing policies are associated with...

Among technological options to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, Carbon Capture and Storage technology (CCS) seems particularly promising. This technology allows to keep on extracting polluting fossil fuels without drastically increasing CO2 atmospheric concentration. We examine here a...

International trade is highly imbalanced both in terms of values and in terms of embodied carbon emissions. We show that the persistent current value trade imbalance patterns contribute to a higher level of global emissions compared to a world of balanced international trade. Specifically, we...
