This paper provides the first estimates of within-industry heterogeneity in energy and CO2 productivity for the entire U.S. manufacturing sector. We measure energy and CO2 productivity as output per dollar energy input or per ton CO2 emitted. Three findings emerge. First, within narrowly...

We measure energy and CO2 productivity as output per dollar energy input or per ton CO2 emitted. Three findings emerge. First, within narrowly defined...

This paper puts trade' s benefi ts and environmental costs on the same theoretical and empirical footing in order to provide a more complete measure of trade' s welfare effects. The paper describes a model of trade and the environment, compiles new data on the CO2 emissions from shipping, and...

We study the impacts of carbon taxation of international transport fuels on CO2 emissions andtrade activity, focusing on maritime transport, which constitutes the most important internationaltrade transport activity. Our estimated bunker price elasticities range from 􀀀 0.03 to 􀀀 0.42....

Between 1990 and 2008, emissions of the most common air pollutants from U.S. manufacturing fell by 60 percent, even as real U.S. manufacturing output grew substantially. This paper develops a quantitative model to explain how changes in trade, environmental regulation, productivity, and consumer...

Between 1990 and 2008, air pollution emissions from U.S. manufacturing fell by 60 percent despite a substantial increase in manufacturing output. We show that these emissions reductions are primarily driven by within-product changes in emissions intensity rather than changes in output or in the...
