I analyze the marginal value of reducing greenhouse gas emissions (the "social cost of carbon") under uncertainty about … warming, under uncertainty about how much warming reduces consumption, and under stochastic shocks to consumption growth. I … theoretically demonstrate that each of these sources of uncertainty increases the social cost of carbon under conventional …

system in the low-carbon transition can lead to a large underestimation of climate transition risk. The set of scenarios that … financial supervisors recommended to investors to analyse climate transition risk include scenarios labelled as ‘disorderly … reshaped depending on the timing and the extent by which financial actors assess climate risk …

This paper argues that a uniform global tax-like price on carbon emissions, whose revenues each country retains, can provide a focal point for a reciprocal common climate commitment, whereas quantity targets, which do not nearly so readily present such a single focal point, tend to rely...

If bioenergy has a less negative impact on the climate than fossil energy, it may be optimal to have a significant increase in the use of bioenergy over time. Due to the difference in the way the climate is affected by the two types of energy, the future time path of the use of bioenergy may be...

We examine the distributional and efficiency impacts of climate policy in the context of fiscal consolidation in a dynamic general-equilibrium overlapping generations model of the US economy. The model includes a disaggregated production structure, including energy sector detail and advanced...

The European Union's Emissions Trading System is the largest system in the world for trade in greenhouse gases. It used to be a cap-and-trade scheme with a fixed supply of permits. However, a recent reform of the system "punctures the waterbed" by making the supply of permits endogenous. The...
