In the Southern Altiplano of Bolivia, altered climate patterns have negatively impacted the production of essential crops. In particular, quinoa, which has gained global popularity as a superfood, has been affected. The increased demand has placed considerable pressure on local farmers to...

We study the effect of a household subsidy to induce the adoption of more efficient and less polluting wood combustion technologies. We compare, through numerical simulations, several subsidy designs with respect to the impact on aggregate emissions, costs, and cost-effectiveness indicators. Two...

We study the cost-effectiveness of a transferable emissions permit system (TEPS) vis a vis a system of emissions standards. Our analysis includes along with abatement costs, the costs of enforcing the system to induce compliance. Further, the analysis considers complete and incomplete...
