The Likely Regional Impacts of an Agricultural Emissions Policy in New Zealand : Preliminary Analysis

Sin, Isabelle; Brunton, Emma; Hendy, Joanna; Kerr, Suzi - 2015

Hendy and Kerr (2005b) find that an emissions charge on agricultural methane and nitrous oxide of $25 per tonne of carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent would be likely to reduce New Zealand's net land-use related emissions for commitment period one in the order of 3%, with full accounting. The costs...

Delayed participation of developing countries to climate agreements: should action in the EU and US be postponed?

Bosetti, Valentina; Carraro, Carlo; Tavoni, Massimo - 2008

This paper analyses the cost implications for climate policy in developed countries if developing countries are unwilling to adopt measures to reduce their own GHG emissions. First, we assume that a 450 CO2 (550 CO2e) ppmv stabilisation target is to be achieved and that Non Annex1 (NA1)...
