In this article we study the implication of thresholds in preferences. To model this we extend the basic model of John and Pecchenino (1994) by allowing the current level of environmental quality to have a discrete impact on how an agent trades o ff future consumption and environmental quality....

We develop an overlapping generations general equilibrium model with two re- gions. Only one of the regions is subject to an international environmental exter- nality. We find that regions that are too poor to sufficiently offset the international externality imposed upon them may be stuck in a...
