A deposit-refund system applied to non-point nitrogen emissions from agricultureEnvironmental Economics and Policy Studies - Tập 2 - Trang 231-247 - 1999
Lars Gårn Hansen
The purpose of this paper is to describe a nitrogen-based deposit-refund system for regulating non-point nitrogen emissions from agriculture. I develop a formal model of a polluting production sector with substance content of inputs and outputs as an explicit quality dimension. Within this framework two input-output based tax schemes for regulation of agricultural nitrogen emissions are compared, ...... hiện toàn bộ
Understanding productivity declines of resource accumulation in the prefectures of JapanEnvironmental Economics and Policy Studies - Tập 19 - Trang 337-357 - 2016
Shogo Eguchi
This study employs a data envelopment analysis (DEA) framework using long-term panel data of the physical stocks of buildings and infrastructure (roadways and railways), labor force, and gross regional product of 46 Japanese prefectures during the period of 1970–2010. I analyzed the change in the efficiency of production resulting from the labor force and resource accumulation in Japan’s prefectur...... hiện toàn bộ
Economic growth and environment in the United Kingdom: robust evidence using more than 250 years dataEnvironmental Economics and Policy Studies - Tập 23 - Trang 667-681 - 2021
Amine Ben Amar
Using a long span of data (from 1751 to 2016), this paper empirically investigates the relationship between carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and economic growth (real GDP per capita) in the United Kingdom. The empirical results provide strong support for the existence of an Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) in the UK, i.e., an inverted U-shaped relationship between CO2 emissions and economic growth,...... hiện toàn bộ
Liberalizing trade in environmental goods and servicesEnvironmental Economics and Policy Studies - Tập 18 - Trang 499-526 - 2015
Bouwe R. Dijkstra, Anuj J. Mathew
We examine the effects of trade liberalization in environmental goods in a model with one domestic downstream polluting firm and two upstream firms (one domestic, one foreign). The upstream firms offer their technologies to the downstream firm at a flat fee. The domestic government sets the emission tax rate after the outcome of R&D is known. The effect of liberalization on the domestic upstream f...... hiện toàn bộ
Economic analysis of water resources in Japan: using factor decomposition analysis based on input-output tablesEnvironmental Economics and Policy Studies - Tập 7 - Trang 109-129 - 2005
Kumiko Kondo
This article explores the cause-and-effect relationship between the exports of manufactured goods and water resources (virtual water). Little is known about virtual water flows in relation to Japan’s exports of manufactured goods. The research is based on the Japanese input-output tables and factor decomposition analysis (1980–2000). Virtual water exports include both “direct” water exports (the w...... hiện toàn bộ
