Pollution perception, assumed to be … part of the generations' preferences, can be either a concern for the flow of pollution only, or for the stock, or anything …

This paper studies Krugman's (1991) core-periphery model and extends it to include environmental pollution. We present … local environmental pollution, a third and more realistic type of equilibrium may occur in which most of the manufacturing …

Production often causes pollution as a by-product. Once environmental degradation becomes too severe, regulation is …-improvements. The model gives an explanation for the inverted U-shaped pollution-income relation found in empirical research for many …

monitoring ambient pollution is low enough, the optimal inspection policy consists in imposing the maximal possible fine, and … mixing between observing ambient pollution and not conducting any inspection at all. However, with stringent upper limits on … the fine, the agency mixes between observing ambient pollution and inspecting all firms. The observation of ambient …

novel data, an innovative noise pollution model, and quasi-experimental methods borrowed from environmental economics to … solve this puzzle. We find consistent evidence that vessel noise pollution from international shipping has lowered fertility … and raised the mortality of the SRKW significantly. Had noise pollution remained at its pre-1998 levels, the SRKW …

We study the impact of short-term exposure to ambient air pollution on the spread and severity of COVID-19 in Germany … patients (80+ years): higher levels of air pollution by one standard deviation 3 to 12 days after developing symptoms increase … deaths by 30 percent (males) and 35 percent (females) of the mean. In addition, air pollution raises the number of confirmed …
