Using the event-study methodology and multivariate regressions, this paper examines the intensity of media coverage, its determinants and its marginal effect on stock returns following chemical disasters. To do this, we build an original dataset of chemical explosions that occurred worldwide...

The two main hurdles to a widespread carbon capture and storage (CCS) deployment are: cost and social acceptance issues. Assessing accurately social preferences is thus interesting to determine whether CCS is socially optimal. Unlike most academic papers that have a dichotomous approach and...

In this paper we study the dynamic general equilibrium path of an economy and the associated optimal growth path in a two-sector overlapping generation model with a stock pollutant. A sector (power generation) is polluting, and the other (final good) is not. Pollution is regulated by tradable...
