Taxation of carbon emissions and air pollution in intertemporal optimization frameworks with social and private discount rates
Mier, Mathias; Adelowo, Jacqueline; Weissbart, Christoph - 2021
Current policies focus on reducing CO2 emissions, neglecting the existence and impact of other air pollutants such as NO2, NH3, NMVOC, PPM10, PPM2.5, and SO2. We devise a strategy to model those emissions and related social cost accounting for diverging social and private discount rates in an...

Complementary taxation of carbon emissions and local air pollution
Mier, Mathias; Adelowo, Jacqueline; Weissbart, Christoph - 2022
Current decarbonization policies neglect damages from local air pollutants. We analyze the trade-off between complementary taxation of carbon emissions and local air pollution. We quantify results for the European power market until 2050. Taxing only air pollution results in social cost of 5,890...

Do Philippine households lead a carbon intensive lifestyle?
Seriño, Moises Neil V. - 2014
This paper estimates carbon emission from household consumption and investigates its determinants. We derive total household carbon emission by using the mechanism of input-output analysis combine with household expenditure for 2005 and 2006. Our estimation shows that fuel and light followed by...

Fuel subsidies and carbon emission : evidence from asymmetric modelling
Adekunle, Ibrahim A.; Oseni, Isiaq Olasunkanmi - 2021
It is expected that fuel subsidy removal should hinder carbon emissions growth through low energy consumption channels amid higher energy prices. However, outliers in this theoretical disposition make empirical proof of the fuel subsidy-carbon intensity apt and primitive. Despite established...

The dependence between income inequality and carbon emissions : a distributional copula analysis
Dorn, Franziska; Maxand, Simone; Kneib, Thomas - 2021
High levels of carbon emissions and rising income inequality are interconnected challenges for the global society. Commonly-applied linear regression models fail to unravel the complexity of potential bi-directional transmission channels. Specifically, consumption, energy sources and the...
