Environmental regulation of a global pollution externality in a bilateral trade framework : the case of global warming, China and the US
Gwatipedza, Johnson; Barbier, Edward - 2013
) and the South (China) in the presence of a global pollution externality. Each country's share of global pollution depends … on its share of world capital. We show that, if the disutility of pollution in the United States is high, there will be … pressure on the US to raise environmental regulations on industry. Capital will move to China. Because the increased pollution …

Endogenous participation in a partial climate agreement with open entry : a numerical assessment
Sferra, Fabio; Tavoni, Massimo - 2013
Our purpose is to analyse the effectiveness and efficiency of a Partial Climate Agreement with open entry under a non-cooperative Nash-Equilibrium framework. We evaluate a partial agreement policy in which non-signatory countries can decide to join or to leave a coalition of the willing at any...

Cooperation on climate-change mitigation : presented at CESifo Area Conference on Energy and Climate Economics, October 2015
Mason, Charles F.; Polasky, Alan Stephen; Tarui, Nori - 2016
We model countries' choice of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions as a dynamic game. Emissions generate immediate benefits to the emitting country but also increase atmospheric GHG concentrations that negatively affect present and future welfare of all countries. Because there are no international...

Global assessment of the carbon leakage implications of carbon taxes on agricultural emissions
Henderson, Ben - 2021
Carbon leakage arises when emission reductions in countries applying a carbon tax are offset, partially or completely, by emission increases in countries that do not apply the tax or any other greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation policies. Analysis using the MAGNET computable general equilibrium...

What we know and don't know about climate change, and implications for policy
Pindyck, Robert S. - 2020 - This draft: May 11, 2020
There is a lot we know about climate change, but there is also a lot we don't know. Even if we knew how much CO2 will be emitted over the coming decades, we wouldn't know how much temperatures will rise as a result. And even if we could predict the extent of warming that will occur, we can say...

Climate policies in a fossil fuel producing country : demand versus supply side policies
Fæhn, Taran; Hagem, Cathrine; Lindholt, Lars; Mæland, … - 2014
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...

The impact of trade and trade policy on the environment and the climate : a review
Felbermayr, Gabriel; Peterson, Sonja; Wanner, Joschka - 2022
While international trade can offer gains from specialization and access to a wider range of products, it is also closely interlinked with global environmental problems, above all, anthropogenic climate change. This survey provides a structured overview of the economic literature on the...
