This paper examines the stationarity of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per capita for a set of 36 countries covering the period 1870-2006. We employ recently developed unit root and stationarity tests that allow for the mean reverting process to be nonlinear and take into account cross sectional...

This paper studies convergence in CO2emission intensity (CO2 emissions over GDP) among OECD countries over the period … existence of convergence clubs. Our results highlight that differences in emission intensity convergence are more determined by … differences in convergence of the carbonisation index rather than by differences in the dynamic convergence of energy intensity. …

We postulate a two-region world, comprised of North (calibrated after the US) and South (calibrated after China). Our optimization results show the compatibility of the following three desiderata: (1) Global CO2 emissions follow a conservative path that leads to the stabilization of...

This paper examines convergence of per capita carbon dioxide (CO2) emission for a panel of 124 countries taking into … data techniques, and we examine the beta-convergence hypothesis in a neoclassical growth model setting with institutional … quality as one of the independent variables. The results reveal evidence in support of beta-convergence of per capita CO2 …

</titre> Basing our study on a gravity model using panel data, we estimate the effects on exports of the progress achieved by a country as regards CO2 emissions in relation to its partners. The model includes dummy variables corresponding to the internal and external trade flows of regional groups. The...

The most cost-effective policies for achieving CO2 abatement (e.g., carbon taxes) fail to get off the ground politically because of unacceptable distributional consequences. This paper explores CO2 abatement policies designed to address distributional concerns. Using an intertemporal numerical...

The control of carbon emissions by policymakers poses the corporate challenge of developing an optimal carbon management policy. We provide a unified model that characterizes how firms should optimally manage emissions through production, green investment, and the trading of carbon credits. We...

This paper aims to examine consumer behaviour towards, and the willingness to adopt, 'green steel' in the automotive sector. Semi-structured interviews were held with experts from global, regional and country-specific industry associations and automakers. This paper appraises potential demand...
