In absence of joint global climate action, several jurisdictions unilaterally restrict their domestic demand for fossil fuels. Another policy option for fossil fuel producing countries, not much explored, is to reduce own supply of fossil fuels. We explore analytically and numerically how...

This contribution seeks to analyse and compare WTO Accession Protocols, particularly the interpretations given relevant commitments made in them regarding energy and fossil fuels. After first providing an outline of the accession process and its importance for the natural resources and energy...

We study how restricting CO2 emissions affects resource prices and depletion over time. We use a Hotelling-style model with two nonrenewable fossil fuels that differ in their carbon content (e.g., coal and natural gas) and that are imperfect substitutes in final good production. We study both an...
