Self-enforcing agreements under unequal nationally determined contributions

Silva, Emilson C. D. - 2016

For a large global economy with normal goods, and an unequal world income distribution, we consider the endogenous formation and stability of an international environmental agreement (IEA) under nationally determined contributions (NDCs). Nations share green R&D efforts and enjoy R&D spillovers...

Technological transfers in global climate policy

Buchholz, Wolfgang; Dippl, Lisa; Eichenseer, Michael - 2015 - This version: September 30, 2015

Theoretical analysis and empirical evidence show that leadership behavior in climate policy through increased abatement efforts or international transfers cannot be expected to be very successful. In this paper we instead show that pioneering activities, which are based on green technological...

Environmental policy design and the fragmentation of international markets for innovation

Johnstone, Nick; Hascic, Ivan - 2009

the benefits of (some) market-based instruments can also be true of well-designed performance standards. While the …

Energy efficiency and directed technical change : implications for climate change mitigation

Casey, Gregory - 2022

I build a quantitative model of economic growth that can be used to evaluate the impact of environmental policy interventions on ﬁnal-use energy consumption, an important driver of carbon emissions. In the model, energy demand is driven by directed technical change. Energy supply is subject to...

Climate damages in convergence-consistent growth projections

Harding, Tony; Moreno Cruz, Juan; Quaas, Martin F.; … - 2023

Projections of climate change damages based on climate-econometric estimates suggest that, without mitigation, global warming could reduce average global incomes by over 20% towards the end of the century (Burke et al., 2015). This figure significantly surpasses climate damages in Integrated...

Optimal climate policy as if the transition matters

Campiglio, Emanuele; Dietz, Simon; Venmans, Frank - 2022

The optimal transition to a low-carbon economy must account for adjustment costs in switching from dirty to clean capital, technological progress, and economic and climatic shocks. We study the low-carbon transition using a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with emissions abatement...

A unifying theory of foreign intervention in domestic climate policy

Moreno Cruz, Juan; Harding, Anthony - 2022

We propose a theory of climate-policy motivated foreign intervention to study different forms of international climate governance in the presence of power imbalance. Foreign countries have at least three options to intervene in another country's domestic climate policy: i.) Agreements with...

Effects of green technology support policies on carbon dioxide emissions

Moessner, Richhild - 2024

This paper provides ex-post empirical evidence on the effects of green technology support policies, in comparison with other climate policies, on carbon dioxide emissions at the aggregate national level. The paper uses cross-country dynamic panel estimation for a sample of 38 countries over the...

Negative emission technologies and climate cooperation

Boldrini, Michela; Bosetti, Valentina; Nunnari, Salvatore - 2024

Negative Emissions Technologies (NETs) - a range of methods to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere- are a crucial innovation in meeting temperature targets set by international climate agreements. However, mechanisms which undo the adverse consequences of short-sighted actions (as NETs)...

Genetic diversity and performance : evidence from football data

Beine, Michel; Peracchi, Silvia; Zanaj, Skerdilajda - 2021

. In this paper, we assess empirically the connection between genetic diversity and the performance of sport teams … matching algorithm based on family names. Performance is measured at both the unilateral and bilateral level. Identification of … one generation before. Our findings indicate a positive causal link between genetic diversity and teams’ performance. We …
