We assess household burdens from a carbon tax with revenue recycling, comparing them to burdens from price changes during the recent cost-of-living crisis. We focus on Lithuania, an OECD country that attained high-income status a decade ago, and that recently enacted a €60/ton CO2 carbon tax...

This paper formalizes the geopolitical externality of climate policy and estimates its plausible magnitudes. Specifically, domestic reductions in fossil fuel demand depress global prices, thereby lowering export revenues for resource-rich autocracies - many of which allocate substantial...

This study examines key indicators impacting China's industrial sector: carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by industry, industrial value added per worker, technology advancement in industrial design, fossil fuel usage, and energy losses in production and transmission. China's industrial sector,...

In this paper, we first test the validity of the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis, using a large sample of approximately 190 advanced and developing countries, over a period of 34 years (1989- 2022). We find that (CO2) emissions respond positively to increasing income per capita, up...

This study investigates the effects of eco-digitalization, green technology, and green finance on environmental sustainability in the presence of affluence and population. The sample size consists of a panel of 19 technologically advanced economies covering the time span from 1980 to 2023. The...

This paper applies a fractional integration framework to investigate the behaviour of the stock returns of two sets of representative US companies with different environmental profiles, namely green versus polluting firms, as well as of the widely used CPU (Climate Policy Uncertainty) index over...
