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...

Carbon emissions embodied in Russia's trade
Makarov, Igor; Sokolova, Anna K. - 2015
According to current international climate change regime countries are responsible for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which result from economic activities within national borders, including emissions from producing goods for exports. At the same time imports of carbon intensive goods are not...

The impact of trade and trade policy on the environment and the climate : a review
Felbermayr, Gabriel; Peterson, Sonja; Wanner, Joschka - 2022
While international trade can offer gains from specialization and access to a wider range of products, it is also closely interlinked with global environmental problems, above all, anthropogenic climate change. This survey provides a structured overview of the economic literature on the...

Green cities? : urbanization, trade and the environment
Borck, Rainald; Pflüger, Michael - 2015
This paper establishes a simple theoretical framework which comprises key forces that shape the structure and interrelation of cities to study the interdependencies between urban evolution and the environment. We focus on the potential of the unfettered market forces to economize on emissions. A...

Global assessment of the carbon leakage implications of carbon taxes on agricultural emissions
Henderson, Ben - 2021
Carbon leakage arises when emission reductions in countries applying a carbon tax are offset, partially or completely, by emission increases in countries that do not apply the tax or any other greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation policies. Analysis using the MAGNET computable general equilibrium...
