The mismatch between actions to combat climate change, which are based on voluntary national initiatives of limited effort, and the recognition of the importance of global warming is growing. Climate engineering via solar radiation management has been proposed as a possible complement to...

This paper studies the impact of national carbon taxes on CO2 emissions. To do so, we run local projections on a cross …-country panel dataset, matching measures of emissions of carbon dioxide with information on the introduction of carbon taxes and … their implied price. Importantly, we consider both measures of territorial emissions - emissions emitted within a country …

Environmental policy often has to be devised under informational constraints, like uncertainty and asymmetric information. We consider an environmental policy that aims at reducing the welfare losses caused by asymmetric information while being sufficiently simple for implementation. In this...
