During recent years increased attention has been given to second-generation wood-based bioenergy. The carbon stored in the forest is highest when there is little or no harvest from the forest. Increasing the harvest from a forest, in order to produce more bioenergy, may thus conflict with the...

The focus of the green paradox literature has been either on demand-side climate policies or on effects of … no green paradox if supply-side climate policies are aimed at high-cost carbon reserves. If instead low-cost reserves are … removed, the possibility that both early and total emissions increase cannot be ruled out. Hence, "wrong" supply-side climate …

This paper explains how, in the context of incomplete coordination among all countries, unilateral policies that might at first sight seem pro-green could actually turn out to harm the global environment. The free-riding motives and the difficulty of reaching an effective international...

This paper contributes to the green paradox literature by using a resource extraction framework with heterogeneous energy sources. A key feature of the model is a capacity constrained green backstop resource, which implies the simultaneous use of the expensive backstop resource and the cheaper...

Under which conditions unilateral tightening of climate policy causes a weak or strong green paradox or even decreases …, as the utilization of backstop by the country which tightens its climate policy always prevents a weak green paradox. As … a consequence, the effect of a tighter climate policy on social welfare can be reversed. Due to the stock dependence of …
