The impact of carbon disclosure mandates on emissions and financial operating performance

Downar, Benedikt; Ernstberger, Jürgen; Reichelstein, Stefan - 2020

We examine whether a disclosure mandate for greenhouse gas emissions creates stakeholder pressure for firms to subsequently reduce their emissions. For UK-incorporated listed firms such a mandate was adopted in 2013. Using a difference-in-differences design, we find that firms affected by the...

Uncertainty about carbon impact and the willingness to avoid CO2 emissions

Pace, Davide Domenico; Imai, Taisuke; Schwardmann, Peter; … - 2023

With a large representative survey (N=1,128), we document that consumers are very uncertain about the emissions associated with various actions, which may affect their willingness to reduce their carbon footprint. We experimentally test two channels for the behavioural impact of such...

Climate change and the irreversibility effect : combining expected utility and maximin

Lange, Andreas - 2002

based on a weighted average of expected utility (EU) and the MaxiMin criterion. I first show that more weight on the worst … case (less weight on EU) may lead to increased first period emissions. The effect of learning possibilities on emissions is …, considering prospective learning increases today s abatement effort, i.e. the irreversibility effect holds, if the weight on EU is …

Focusing climate negotiations on a uniform common commitment can promote cooperation

Schmidt, Klaus M.; Ockenfels, Axel - 2021 - Final version

International cooperation on the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, disarmament, or free trade needs to be negotiated. The success of such negotiations depends on how they are designed. In the context of international climate change policy, it has been proposed [e.g., Weitzman J of the...

Carbon pricing, border adjustment and climate clubs : an assessment with EMuSe

Ernst, Anne; Hinterlang, Natascha; Mahle, Alexander; … - 2022

In a dynamic, three-region environmental multi-sector general equilibrium model (called EMuSe), we find that carbon pricing generates a recession initially as production costs rise. Benefits from lower emissions damage materialize only in the medium to long run. A border adjustment mechanism...

The green Paradox and Learning-by-Doing in the renewable energy sector

Nachtigall, Daniel; Rübbelke, Dirk T. G. - 2014

The green paradox conveys the idea that climate policies may have unintended side effects when taking into account the reaction of fossil fuel suppliers. In particular, carbon taxes that will be implemented in the future induce resource owners to extract more rapidly which increases present...

The effects of natural disasters and weather variations on international trade : a review of the empirical literature

Osberghaus, Daniel - 2019

This review summarizes the empirical literature on the effects of natural disasters and weather variations on international trade flows. A first result is that the body of literature is actually not as small as previously suggested. In total, I summarize 19 studies of 18 independent research...
