This paper develops a continuous time model of endogenous growth based on innovations in consumption goods. The model considers two types of goods, standard goods (whose production and consumption lead to pollution), and green goods (which have no effect on the environment). In addition to...

This paper describes a dynamic applied general equilibrium model, with perfect foresight, designed for clarifying the questions concerning taxation and the environment. The first section gives an overview of the model, focusing on the way of introducing explicitly the environmental dimension in...

The Kyoto Protocol, which came in force in February 2005, allows countries to resort to "supplementary activities" consisting, in particular, in the sequestration of carbon in agricultural soils.

In this paper, we investigate through Monte Carlo simulations the behavior of the codependence testing procedure (Gouriéroux et Peaucelle [1989]) in small samples and in various usual statistical situations. Our results suggest that, except for the pure MA(q) case, important power losses may...
