This paper examines the interrelationship of learning e ffects and emission control on the diffusion of carbon capture and storage (CCS). We introduce a dynamic model in which an electricity producer maximizes pro ts subject to emissions control. All technologies are characterized by specific...

Three gaps in the Kyoto Protocol most badly need to be filled: the absence of emission targets extending far into the future, the absence of participation by the United States, China, and other developing countries, and the absence of reason to think that members will abide by commitments. To be...

Scientific expertise suggests that mitigating extreme world-wide climate change damages requires avoiding increases in the world mean temperature exceeding 2° Celsius. To achieve the two degree target, the cumulated global emissions must not exceed some limit, the so-called global carbon...
