The anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere are one of the problems facing mankind on a global scale. Therefore, the governments of many countries are making efforts to reduce CO2 emissions through regulatory measures. Environmental pollution from CO2 emissions is not only...

This paper reviews the case of nuclear energy. Currently, the worldworld is facing one of the greatest energy crises due to the Russo-Ukrainian war. This conflict has lead to limited sources of gas, causing a dramatic decrease in energy supply, leading to emerging energy crisis risks. This is...

Man’s history and developmental endeavour have been advancing alongside a trail of ecological ramifications and climate change. Since prehistoric times, scientists have not recorded an accelerated shift in ecology during any other epoch beside that of modern man on the planet. The paper seeks...

The study seeks to provide a varieties of policy options to a newly appointed Minister on best way to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The study is a policy brief submitted to examine policy options that can be considered by a Minister of Environment to solve the quagmires of GHG...

This paper re-examines the relationship between per capita income, inequality, and per capita emissions while accounting for nonhomotheticity in green preferences and nonlinearities in the impact of economic growth on GHG emissions. Theoretically, our research is motivated by the fact that if...

We study a class of finite-horizon differential games with control-state separable objective functionals and state equations. In this context, we introduce simple mechanisms that give a dynamic payoff to agents that only depends on the current value of the state variable. Thus, in many...

Wildfire activity has increased in the US and is projected to accelerate under future climate change. However, our understanding of the impacts of climate change on wildfire smoke and health remains highly uncertain. We quantify the past and future mortality burden in the US due to wildfire...

Legumes, which currently show low production levels in the European Union, can reduce negative environmental externalities of agricultural systems by lowering nitrogen (N) fertilization and increasing protein self-sufficiency. This has led to the introduction of coupled support in France, in...

As an important step towards building a “harmonious society” through “scientific development,” China has incorporated for the first time in its five-year economic plan an energy input indicator as a constraint. While it achieved a quadrupling of its GDP while cutting its energy intensity...

Despite the progress that has been made in the measurement of productivity, there have been few attempts to cast emissions of bad outputs within a joint-production framework. This paper does so. It proposes an experimental framework that depends critically on the shadow price estimates of...
