CO 2 emissions and greenhouse gas policy stringency : an empirical assessment
Probst, Marcel; Sauter, Caspar - 2015
This paper investigates how greenhouse gas (GHG) policy stringency affects anthropogenic CO2 emissions using a new GHG policy stringency indicator and a structural spatial VAR approach. We estimate an average country-specific elasticity of CO2 emissions to GHG policy stringency, and assess the...

Two Birds, One Stone? Local Pollution Regulation and Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Brunel, Claire - 2017
In most countries, environmental regulation focuses on local pollution, which causes damages near the emission source … pollutants can either be substitutes or complements in production, implying that local pollution regulation may either intensify … or reduce global warming concerns. We exploit new data on US GHG emissions and variation in local pollution regulation …

Convergence in total greenhouse gas emissions worldwide
Belloc, Ignacio; Molina, José Alberto - 2023
This paper examines convergence patterns in total greenhouse gas emissions across 114 countries from 1990 to 2019. Prior research has largely focused on one representative greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide emissions, but our goal is to broaden the study. We use the club convergence test to contrast...

Emission pricing and capital replacement : evidence from aircraft fleet renewal
Jong, Gerben de - 2022
This paper empirically studies how emission pricing affects capital replacement and adoption of embodied environmental technology. A pricing policy encourages firms to accelerate retirement of old capital assets and replace them with newer more efficient assets, but this may crowd out...

Who Pollutes? A Household-Level Database of America's Greenhouse Gas Footprint
Ummel, Kevin - 2015
This paper describes the creation of a database providing estimated greenhouse gas (GHG) footprints for 6 million US households over the period 2008-2012. The database allows analysis of footprints for 52 types of consumption (e.g. electricity, gasoline, apparel, beef, air travel, etc.) within...

Inequality and climate change : two problems, one solution?
Nicolli, Francesco; Gilli, Marianna; Vona, Francesco - 2022
This paper re-examines the relationship between per capita income, inequality, and per capita emissions while accounting for nonhomotheticity in green preferences and nonlinearities in the impact of economic growth on GHG emissions. Theoretically, our research is motivated by the fact that if...
