Elasticity of substitution between clean and dirty energy inputs : a macroeconomic perspective
Papageorgiou, Chris; Saam, Marianne; Schulte, Patrick - 2013
Recently Acemolgu, Aghion, Bursztyn and Hemous (AER 2012) formulated a model in which a high macroeconomic elasticity of substitution between clean and dirty production represents a crucial condition for green growth. Until now it has never been systematically estimated. Using a novel panel of...

Public policies and long-run growth in a model with environmental degradation
Bonatti, Luigi; Lorenzetti, Lorenza Alexandra - 2022
We study how public policies affects an economy where production emits pollutants and investment in productive assets raises the economy’s overall productivity. We explore two hypotheses about how the accumulation of pollutants affects human well-being. Under the first one, there is no limit...

Better to grow or better to improve? : measuring environmental efficiency in OECD countries with a Stochastic Environmental Kuznets Frontier
Badunenko, Oleg; Galeotti, Marzio; Hunt, Lester C. - 2021
The standard approach to the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) holds that as a country develops and GDP per capita grows environmental degradation initially increases but eventually it reaches a turning point where environmental degradation begins to decline. Environmental degradation takes many...

Climate protection versus convergence?
Lengwiler, Yvan - 2021
Global economic convergence and protection of the climate are both worthwhile goals. Yet, there is an inherent tension between them. Greenhouse gases are a waste product that is often emitted in the production process. Limiting such emissions therefore hampers the accumulation of income and...

Public transport and urban pollution
Borck, Rainald - 2017
The paper studies the effect of public transport policies on urban pollution. It uses a quantitative equilibrium model … with residential choice and mode choice. Pollution comes from commuting and residential energy use. The model parameters … transport coupled with increasing transit speed affects the equilibrium. In the baseline simulation, total pollution falls by 0 …
