We study how the implementation of emissions trading systems (ETS) impacts emissions reductions and the usage of … implementations, we show that ETS adoption materially reduced greenhouse gas (carbon dioxide) emissions by 12.1% (18.1%). Moreover …, ETSs reduced overall emissions by cutting fossil fuel usage, such as coal, by 23.70% while boosting the usage of renewable …

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 …
