Revealed preferences for climate protection when the purely individual perspective is relaxed : evidence from a framed field experiment
Löschel, Andreas; Sturm, Bodo; Uehleke, Reinhard - 2013
In this paper, we investigate the real demand for climate protection when the purely individual perspective of existing revealed preference studies is relaxed. This is achieved in two treatments; first, we determine the information subjects receive about the demand revealed by other subjects in...

Climate change, economic growth, and health
Ikefuji, Masako; Magnus, Jan R.; Sakamoto, Hiroaki - 2010
This paper studies the interplay between climate, health, and the economy in a stylized world with four heterogeneous regions, labeled 'West' (cold and rich), 'China' (cold and poor), 'India' (warm and poor), and 'Africa' (warm and very poor). We introduce health impacts into a simple integrated...

Carbon prices for the next thousand years
Gerlagh, Reyer; Liski, Matti - 2012
Climate is a persistent asset, bar none: changes in climate-related stocks have consequences spanning over centuries or possibly millennia to the future. To reconcile the discounting of such far-distant impacts and realism of the shorter-term decisions, we consider hyperbolic time-preferences in...

Fiscal consolidation and climate policy : an overlapping generations perspective ; conference paper
Rausch, Sebastian - 2013 - This version: March 1, 2013, very preliminary
We examine the distributional and efficiency impacts of climate policy in the context of fiscal consolidation in a dynamic general-equilibrium overlapping generations model of the US economy. The model includes a disaggregated production structure, including energy sector detail and advanced...

Climate change and individual behavior
Bernard, René; Tzamourani, Panagiota; Weber, Michael - 2022
This paper studies the causal effect of providing information about climate changeon individuals’ willingness to pay to offset carbon emissions in a randomizedcontrol trial. Receiving truthful information about ways to reduce CO2 emis-sions increases individuals’ willingness to pay for CO2...
