From fossil fuels to renewables : studies on the effects of resource endowments and climate policy on economic outcomes
Montoya Gómez, Ana Maria - 2020
This doctoral thesis, organized in three self-contained chapters, provides an analysis of the economic effects associated with the extraction of natural resources and the transition from an economy based on fossil fuel use to an economy relying primarily on renewable energy sources. Chapter 1...

Production Functions for Climate Policy Modeling : An Empirical Analysis
van der Werf, Edwin - 2008
Quantitative models for climate policy modeling differ in the production structure used and in the sizes of the elasticities of substitution. The empirical foundation for both is generally lacking. This paper estimates the parameters of two-level CES production functions with capital, labour and...

Carbon leakage with structural gravity : conference paper
Aichele, Rahel - 2013
The future international climate policy architecture will most likely consist of partial climate policy initiatives like the EU's Emission Trading System. Trade integration threatens to undermine these systems' environmental effectiveness by shifting emissions to other countries. We estimate a...

The Impact of Global Warming on Inflation : Averages, Seasonality and Extremes
Kotz, Maximilian; Kuik, Friderike; Lis, Eliza; Nickel, … - 2023
Understanding of the macroeconomic effects of climate change is developing rapidly, but the implications for past and future inflation remain less well understood. Here we exploit a global dataset of monthly consumer price indices to identify the causal impacts of changes in climate on...

International trade and the transmission of temperature shocks
Osberghaus, Daniel; Schenker, Oliver - 2022
We examine how the adverse impacts of weather shocks are distributed through the trade network. Exploiting a rich, theoretically derived, fixed effects structure, we find significant negative short-run effects of high temperature on exports. A month with an average temperature above 30 °C...

Land-Use Change and Carbon Sinks : Econometric Estimation of the Carbon Sequestration Supply Function
Plantinga, Andrew; Lubowski, Ruben N.; Stavins, Robert N. - 2014
When and if the United States chooses to implement a greenhouse gas reduction program, it will be necessary to decide whether carbon sequestration policies - such as those that promote forestation and discourage deforestation - should be part of the domestic portfolio of compliance activities....

The Relation between Wealth and Health : Evidence from a World-Panel of Countries
Hansen, Casper Worm - 2012
From a world-sample of countries, this paper presents panel data evidence that documents a U-shaped relation between … GDP per capita (wealth) and life expectancy (health). The evidence also shows that excluding the possibility of a non …-monotonic relationship induces erroneous conclusions about the time varying wealth-health correlation …
