Global Warming and Environmental Production Efficiency Ranking of the Kyoto Protocol Nations
Feroz, Ehsan H.; Raab, Raymond L.; Ulleberg, Gerald T.; … - 2018
We study the United Nations Organization's Kyoto Protocol nations to address two questions. First of all, what are the environmental production efficiency rankings of these nations? Secondly, is there a relationship between a nation's ratification status and its environmental production...

We model the motives for residents of a country to hold foreign assets, including the precautionary motive that has been omitted from much previous literature as intractable. Our model captures many of the principal insights from the existing specialized literature on the precautionary motive,...

Analysing mechanisms for meeting global emissions target : a dynamical systems approach
Ranganathan, Shyam; Swain, Ranjula Bali - 2014
Global emissions beyond 44 gigatonnes of carbondioxide equivalent (GtCO2e) in 2020 can potentially lead the world to an irreversible climate change. Employing a novel dynamical system modeling approach, we predict that in a business-asusual scenario, it will reach 61 GtCO2e by 2020. Testing...
