Aviation and the environment in the context of the EU-US open skies agreement

Mayor, Karen (contributor); Tol, Richard S. J. (contributor) - 2008

We examine the impacts of the EU-US Open Skies agreement on the environment, in particular looking at the effect of the … in emissions. Model simulations show that passenger numbers arriving from the US to the EU will increase by between 1 … percentage increase in global emissions is much smaller (max. 1%) than the increase in cross-Atlantic traffic. In the current …

On the effects of unilateral environmental policy on offshoring in multi-stage production processes

Schenker, Oliver; Koesler, Simon; Löschel, Andreas - 2014

In the last decades supply chains emerged that stretch across many countries. This has been explained with decreasing trade and communication costs. We extend the literature by analyzing if and how unilateral environmental regulation induces offshoring to unregulated jurisdictions. We first...

Modified Ramsey discounting for climate change

Tol, Richard S. J. - 2011

The Ramsey rule for the consumption rate of discount assumes a transfer of money of a (representative) agent at one point in time to the same agent at another point in time. Climate policy (implicitly) transfers money not just over time but also between agents. I propose three alternative...

A cost-benefit analysis of the EU 20/20/2020 package

Tol, Richard S. J. - 2010

policy is well-designed, a condition not met by planned EU policy. It is probably twice as expensive as needed, costing one … in ten years of economic growth. The EU targets for 2020 are unlikely to meet the benefit-cost test. For a standard …

Greener homes: an ex-post estimate of the cost of carbon dioxide emission reduction using administrative micro-data from the republic of Ireland

Leahy, Eimear; Tol, Richard S. J. - 2011

We assess the subsidy for the installation of biomass boilers and wood gasification boilers under the Greener Homes Scheme in Ireland. We find that the (implicit) subsidy per tonne of carbon dioxide avoided varies hugely across households. The current policy costs 17% too much for the emissions...

Climate policy under fat-tailed risk : an application of dice

Hwang, In Chang; Reynès, Frédéric; Tol, Richard S. J. - 2011

Uncertainty plays a significant role in evaluating climate policy, and fattailed uncertainty may dominate policy advice. Should we make our utmost effort to prevent the arbitrarily large impacts of climate change under deep uncertainty? In order to answer to this question we propose an new way...

Marginal abatement costs of carbon-dioxide emissions : a meta-analysis

Kuik, Onno J. (contributor); Brander, Luke (contributor); … - 2008

In this paper we carry out a meta-analysis of recent studies into the costs of greenhouse gas mitigation policies that aim at the long-term stabilization of these gases in the atmosphere. We find the cost estimates of the studies to be sensitive to the level of the stabilization target, the...
