Is China taking actions to limit its greenhouse gas emissions? past evidence and future prospects
Zhang, ZhongXiang - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 1998
As the world’s second largest carbon emitter, China has long been criticised as a “free-rider” enjoying benefits from … other countries’ efforts to abate greenhouse gas emissions but not taking due responsibilities of its own. China has been … historical contributions of inter-fuel switching, energy conserva¬tion, economic growth and population expan¬sion to China’s CO2 …

Do consumers select food products based on carbon dioxide emissions? Evidence from a buying experiment in Japan
Aoki, Keiko - 2009
This study investigates how consumers value carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions of food by conducting a choice experiment before an ecolabel is attached on some foods in Japan. Participants are asked to buy some Satsuma mandarin oranges based on price and CO2 emissions and take them home. The...

How Do Airlines Cut Fuel Usage, Reducing Their Carbon Emissions?
Brueckner, Jan K.; Kahn, Matthew E.; Nickelsburg, Jerry - 2023
Airline fuel consumption is costly for the firms and for society as well due to a climate-change externality. We study how fuel price changes affect cost-minimizing choices by airlines that have implications for the extent of this externality. The airline industry's capital stock can be easily...

Internal Validity of Estimating the Carbon Kuznets Curve by Controlling for Energy Use
Itkonen, Juha - 2010
The carbon Kuznetz curve (CKC) hypothesis assumes that carbon dioxide emissions initially increase in tandem with output but start decreasing at higher levels of output. This paper considers the internal validity of estimating the CKC in an integrated framework of carbon dioxide emissions,...

Causal misspecifications in econometric models
Itkonen, Juha - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2011
We bridge together the graph-theoretic and the econometric approach for defining causality in statistical models to consider model misspecification problems. By presenting a solution to disagreements between the existing frameworks, we build a causal framework that allows us to express causal...

Impact Analysis on Gasoline Demand and CO2 Emissions of the Reduction in Expressway Toll, Free Expressways and Repeal of Temporary Tax on Gasoline
Yanagisawa, Akira - East Asian Bureau of Economic Research (EABER) - 2009
The toll on expressways is reduced as one of the economic stimulation packages of the Japanese government. The effect, however, is disputable. There are two competing views on the effect on gasoline demand and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, which is related to climate change. One is that this...
