Population growth and global CO2 emissions : a secular perspective

Economic Growth and CO2 Emissions with Endogenous Emission Regulations: A Computable General Equilibrium Analysis

It is widely known that emissions of greenhouse gases from anthropogenic activities have been dramatically increasing at the unprecedented rate over the past several decades, and causing the global…

Richer and Cleaner? A Study on Carbon Dioxide Emissions in Developing Countries

The Climate Change debate has drawn attention to the problem of greenhouse gases emissions into the atmosphere. One of the most important issues in the policy debate is the role that should be played…

Economic Growth Assumptions in Climate and Energy Policy

The assumption that the economic growth seen in recent decades will continue has dominated the discussion of future greenhouse gas emissions and the mitigation of and adaptation to climate change.…

Dynamics and Economic Aspects of Climate Change

Climate change is the alteration of climate directly or indirectly caused by human activities that modify the composition of the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases (GHG), particularly CO2, are accumulating…

Economic Aspects of Climate Change

Although economists have often disagreed on economic aspects of global warming, views, such as those expressed in the Stern Review, which purports global warming as a major economic problem carrying…

The Impact of CO2 Emission Cuts on Income

We study how carbon dioxide (CO2) emission cuts affect income for 23 OECD countries over the 1980-2004 period. The importance of this question is manifested in the disagreements at the 2009 United…

Grazing the Commons: Global Carbon Emissions Forever?

This paper presents the results from our investigation of the per-capita, long- term relation between carbon dioxide emissions and gross domestic product (GDP) for the world, obtained with the use of…

Is economic growth compatible with a reduction in CO2 emissions? Empirical analysis of the United States

Is the Economic Growth in the United States Influenced by Its Fossil Fuel-based Carbon Dioxide Emissions?

For the first time in the scientific literature, this research establishes empirical evidence for the existence of a causal relationship among fossil fuel-based carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions in…

Economics of Global Warming, The

This award-winning study examines the costs and benefits of an aggressive program of global action to limit greenhouse warming. An initial chapter summarizes the scientific issues from the standpoint…

Uncertainty Analysis of the IEA/ORAU CO2 Emissions Model

Future levels of carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels are an important determinant of the severity and timing of global warming due to elevated levels of radiatively active (greenhouse) gases…

Some economics of global warming

The greenhouse effect itself is simple enough to understand and is not in any real dispute. What is in dispute is its magnitude over the coming century, its translation into changes in climates…

Tax Policy to Combat Global Warming: On Designing a Carbon Tax

This paper develops several points concerning the design and implementation of a carbon tax. First, if implemented without any offsetting changes in transfer programs, the carbon tax would be…

Economic Growth and Environmental Quality Time-Series and Cross-Country Evidence

The authors explore the relationship between economic growth and environmental quality by analyzing patterns of environmental transformation for countries at different income levels. They look at how…

Environmental Quality and Development: Is There a Kuznets Curve for Air Pollution Emissions?

Abstract Several recent studies have identified inverted-U relationships between pollution and economic development. We investigate this question using a cross-national panel of data on emissions of…

A Contribution to the Empirics of Economic Growth

This paper examines whether the Solow growth model is consistent with the international variation in the standard of living. It shows that an augmented Solow model that includes accumulation of human…

Global warming : economic policy responses

Global warming is debated largely in environmental terms. The contributions in this book focus instead on the economic effects of global warming, providing an excellent summary of current thinking on…

Global Energy and CO2 to the Year 2050

One of the important by-products of the combustion of fossil fuels is carbon dioxide (C02), a nontoxic, colorless gas with a faintly pungent odor and acid taste. Carbon dioxide is not commonly…

A Sensitivity Analysis of Cross-Country Growth Regressions

A vast amount of literature uses cross-country regressions to find empirical links between policy indicators and long-run average growth rates. The authors study whether the conclusions from existing…
