A model united nations experiment on climate negotiations
Hofmann, Elisa; Kyriacou, Lucas; Schmidt, Klaus M. - 2021
Weitzman (2014) proposed that focusing international climate negotiations on a uniform carbon price is more effective than Paris style negotiations in achieving ambitious climate action. We put this hypothesis to an experimental test by simulating international negotiations on climate change in...

A model United Nations experiment on climate negotiations
Hofmann, Elisa; Kyriacou, Lucas; Schmidt, Klaus M. - In: Jahrbücher für Nationalökonomie und Statistik 243 (2023) 5, pp. 543-566
Weitzman, M.L. (2014. Can negotiating a uniform carbon price help to internalize the global warming externality? J. Assoc. Environ. Resour. Econ. 1: 29-49) proposed that focusing international climate negotiations on a uniform common commitment (such as a uniform carbon price) is more effective...

Cooperation and competition in climate change policies : mitigation and climate engineering when countries are asymmetric
Manoussi, Vassiliki; Xepapadeas, Anastasios - 2014
impatience, and the private cost of geoengineering. We determine the impact of asymmetry on mitigation and SRM activities …, concentration of GHGs, and global temperature, and we examine whether a trade-off actually emerges between mitigation and SRM. Our … results could provide some insights into a currently emerging debate regarding mitigation and SRM methods to control climate …

Mitigation and solar radiation management in climate change policies
Manousi, Vasiliki; Xepapadeas, Anastasios - 2013
potential policies against climate change: mitigation, which is the traditional policy, and geoengineering. We analyze the … optimal policy mix of geoengineering and mitigation in both a cooperative and a noncooperative framework, in which we study …

Internationally Coordinated Emission Permit Policies : An Option for Withdrawers from the Kyoto Protocol?
Bednar-Friedl, Birgit - 2014
This paper investigates the welfare costs of unilateral versus internationally coordinated emission permit policies in a two-country overlapping generations model with producer carbon emissions. We show that, for a net foreign debtor country, the domestic welfare costs of a unilateral domestic...

Climate negotiations in times of multiple crises : credibility and trust in international climate politics after COP 27
Feist, Marian; Geden, Oliver - Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik - 2023
The 27th Conference of the Parties (COP 27) to the United Nations Framework Conven­tion on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, was marked by multiple crises and the shaken confidence of developing countries in the multilateral process. Nonetheless, an agreement was reached on the...

Cooperation on climate-change mitigation : presented at CESifo Area Conference on Energy and Climate Economics, October 2015
Mason, Charles F.; Polasky, Alan Stephen; Tarui, Nori - 2016
We model countries' choice of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions as a dynamic game. Emissions generate immediate benefits to the emitting country but also increase atmospheric GHG concentrations that negatively affect present and future welfare of all countries. Because there are no international...

Two decades of international climate negotiations : carbon budget allocation approach to re-shaping developing country strategies
Yedla, Sudhakar; Garg, Sandhya - In: Journal of East Asian economic integration 18 (2014) 3, pp. 277-299
Climate negotiations have been going on for the last two decades and the awareness for impacts of climate change has improved substantially. However, the trends of global CO2 emissions did not reveal any encouraging signs, with developing countries emitting even more CO2 and industrialized...

Voluntary corporate climate initiatives and regulatory loom : batten down the hatches
Ilić, Dragan; Mollet, Janick Christian - 2015
The rationale of voluntary corporate initiatives is often explained with preparedness for future regulation. We test this hypothesis for the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) and the Climate Leaders (CL), two popular voluntary US environmental programs to curb carbon emission that were operating...
