Nuclear Power, Externalities and Non-Standard Pigouvian Taxes
Environmental and Resource Economics - Tập 11 Số 2 - Trang 177-195 - 1998
Aronsson, Thomas, Backlund, Kenneth, Löfgren, Karl-Gustaf
The external effects arising from the use of nuclear power are, in a fundamental way, related to uncertainty. In this paper we locate these external effects and derive a dynamic Pigouvian tax in order to make the decentralized economy support the command optimum. Another interesting result is that a small constant energy tax (which we interpret as a second best policy) can take the decentralized e... hiện toàn bộ
Structural Decomposition Analysis of Physical Flows in the Economy
Environmental and Resource Economics - Tập 23 Số 3 - Trang 357-378 - 2002
Hoekstra, Rutger, van den Bergh, Jeroen C.J.M.
Many environmental problems can be attributedto the extraction and emissions of physicalsubstances. Increasing our understanding of theeconomic and technological driving forcesbehind these physical flows can contribute tosolving the environmental problems related tothem. The input-output framework is a usefulsetting in which to integrate detailedinformation about economic structure andphysical flo... hiện toàn bộ
An Economic Analysis and Simulation of Woodfuel Management in the Sahel
Environmental and Resource Economics - Tập 19 Số 3 - Trang 285-304 - 2001
Chomitz, Kenneth M., Griffiths, Charles
This paper presents an economic framework and a computationalmethodology for assessing the evolution of woodfuel supply costsand the spatial distribution of biomass in a Sahelian woodlandsetting. Spatial data on standing stock and the costs oftransport to market are used to construct a supply curve for fuelto a fuel-consuming location. Given an exogenously specifieddemand, the model simulates, per... hiện toàn bộ
Managing the international commons: Resource use and pollution control
Environmental and Resource Economics - - 1995
Xepapadeas, Anastasios
The simultaneous management, in an international context, of free-access renewable resources and transboundary pollution, is examined in a dynamic game framework. First-best outcomes under international cooperation are determined and compared to noncooperative outcomes when countries follow linear Markov strategies. An international policy consisting of taxes on emissions and harvesting, with inte... hiện toàn bộ
A Damage Based Tax Mechanism for Regulation of Non-Point Emissions
Environmental and Resource Economics - Tập 12 Số 1 - Trang 99-112 - 1998
Hansen, Lars Gårn
In a recent paper Segerson (1988) proposed a novel incentive mechanism for stochastic non-point emissions based on ambient pollution concentrations in nature. For specification of the mechanism when the damage function is nonlinear, the regulator must know polluters’ cost and emission functions. The mechanism also gives incentives to form coalitions among polluters, which, if they are formed, rend... hiện toàn bộ
A Green Energy Plan for Denmark
Environmental and Resource Economics - Tập 14 Số 3 - Trang 431-440 - 1999
Lund, Henrik
Several political regulation instruments -- such as CO2 taxes -- have been suggested to implement CO2 reduction policies. But normally the cost of implementing CO2 reduction policies is considered to be a threat to both economic growth and employment. But to some extent, strategies can be developed which implement CO2 reduction goals by creating jobs and such strategies could help economic growth.... hiện toàn bộ
Is Ecolabelling a Reliable Environmental Policy Measure?
Environmental and Resource Economics - Tập 18 Số 1 - Trang 113-127 - 2001
Dosi, Cesare, Moretto, Michele
The rationale of ecolabelling is to enable firms to reap the willingness-to-payfor the environmental attributes of goods by helping consumers toidentify ``green'' products. By so doing, ecolabelling is expected tostimulate spontaneous environmental innovation and to reduce aggregatedpollution. Our analysis however outlines situations under whichecolabelling could induce perverse effects, namely in... hiện toàn bộ
Decentralization Effects in Ecological Fiscal Transfers: A Bayesian Structural Time Series Analysis for Portugal
Environmental and Resource Economics - - 2018
Droste, Nils, Becker, Claudia, Ring, Irene, Santos, Rui
Portugal has a unitary system in which the central government transfers funds to lower government levels for their public functions. In 2007, Portugal introduced Ecological Fiscal Transfers (EFT), where municipalities receive transfers for hosting protected areas (PA). We study whether introducing EFT in Portugal incentivized municipalities to designate PA and has led to a decentralization of cons... hiện toàn bộ
